Lyrics

[00:06.16] You always said,Someday you'd go to live
[00:10.60] In Southern California
[00:17.90] And me I'd stay right here in Tennessee
[00:22.62] You always talked about the better days
[00:27.18] In Southern California
[00:33.73] But if you'll stay in Tennessee
[00:36.34] I promise there'll be better days with me
[00:44.61] It's not that I don't love you but I hear the call
[00:48.55] From Southern California
[00:55.50] There's something I can't find in Tennessee
[01:01.25] Silver screens and limousines
[01:03.94] They wait for me in Southern California
[01:12.22] Though you've been so good to me
[01:14.91] The time has come you'll have to set me free
[01:23.14] Tomorrow when you leave you'll take my heart
[01:27.70] To Southern California
[01:34.00] But just remember I'll be here
[01:36.83] To keep your heart with me until you see
[01:50.81] Well, it's been five years and I guess I've cried a million tears
[01:57.23] Lookin' out the window of this little room
[01:59.55] Right over that flashin' neon sign that says, "Bar"
[02:04.33] It's almost midnight and time to go downstairs and go to work
[02:09.49] I wonder how he's doin' in, Tennessee?
[02:13.80] Well, here I sit by the window of this big old lonely mansion
[02:18.13] Lookin' out over the Smokies and on in everything I can see
[02:22.94] Oh, I guess by now she's found what she was lookin' for
[02:26.45] And as I look at this old faded photograph
[02:29.33] Of the girl that I still love I wonder if she ever, thinks of me
[02:37.63] But the weather's good
[02:40.37] In Southern California
