Oh, California
I met him on the edge of a good bye
i was standing there with no where left to fly
i was young but never green
a little wiser than my time it seemed
he told me bout the places we couldhide
wild and kind of crazy most of the time
my heart was hanging on his every line
i memorized his every thought
but the walls he had could never be brought down
and now he's not around
i guess i'm just another face left in the crowd
oh california
please come back to me
oh california
and who i want to be
live inside of me
i know you're lying somewhere in the arche or destiny
your memory is still eager here and i'll never set it free
oh california
please come back to me
oh california
who i want to be
lives inside of me
lives inside of me
