That California Song

She said '€œSing me a lullaby so sweet,
That the lights would stay away from me
Because my eyes see things they shouldn't see
Help me.'€
So I started to tremble out a verse
But my words weren't lining up with her
But then the way that she hurt was even worse
Than without me.

So I got high
And I lost faith in a melody
Written for a girl when I had nothing left to hide,
And then I cried
Cause I'm missing you and missing Florida
It's a long way back from California.

And as the sun fell dark behind the sea,
I felt her eyes steal another look at me,
She said '€œI'm looking for things I'll never see.'€
Release me
And how'd this summer air just get so cold?
And how'd this quiet girl just get so bold?
And how can she be something I can't hold?
Tell me

So I got high
And I lost faith in a melody
Written for a girl when I had nothing left to hide,
And then I cried
Cause I'm missing you and missing Florida
It's a long way back from California.

California

Cuz I'm missing you, and missing Florida,
It's a long way back from California
A long way back from California.
