about

Reaches the dreamer in all of us

lyrics

Time moves faster than you could know
You make your list and than your own you own
Well dreams come fast but than they’re slow to find
California and I on your mind
California and I on your mind

Well it goes easy at first but than you see
you’re on your feet and than your on your knees
You pray to god if he could make it right
California won’t you be the light
California won’t you be the light

Rain comes rollin in
With with the wind
They tell you it’s too late
Fall so far behind
And everyone is happier than me

You take that poison and you drink it down
A couple years and you’ll be on the ground
You close your eyes and all you see is black
California won’t you take it back
California won’t you take me back

Rain comes rollin in
With with the wind
They tell you it’s too late
Fall so far behind
And everyone is happier than me

Time moves faster than you could know
You make your list and than your own you own
