Love's a list of things
And I'm already late
What will stay the same
In a body made to blame
Are the reasons and that's all
As fast as you can drive
And lost as you arrive
They will be permanently...
And that's more than California could ever promise you
More than California, California...
And it's only California staring back at you
Only California, California...
Coincidence could trace
In chalk around this place
Or shake out the dust and cover us gently
But the math is new again
The numbers will do us in, oh yeah
Not today, but one day like today
And songs for California are catching up with you
Songs about California, California...
When we call it California, they named it after you
You are California, California...
In sentences and in pieces of them
You will be covered, or something
And California, California...
California, California...
