California Dreamin'


Lyrics

[Verse 1]
All the leaves are brown, and the sky is gray
I've been for a walk on a winter's day
I'd be safe and warm if I was in L.A.
California dreamin', on such a winter's day
All the leaves are brown and the sky is gray
I've been for a walk on a winter's day
I'd be safe and warm if I was in L.A.
California dreamin', on such a winter's day

[Verse 2]
I stopped into a church I passed along the way
Well, I got down on my knees
And I pretended to pray
You know the preacher liked the cold
He knows I'm gonna stay
California dreamin', on such a winter's day

[Bridge]
I'd be safe and warm
I'd be safe and warm
I'd be safe and warm
I'd be safe and warm

[Verse 3]
All the leaves are brown, and the sky is gray
I've been for a walk on a winter's day
If I didn't go, I could leave today
California dreamin', on such a winter's day
Oh, on such a winter's day
On such a winter's day
