Lyrics

[00:15.20] Do you remember California? 20-oh-6?
[00:22.38] You told me we could change this world
[00:26.12] I had no doubt about it
[00:29.67] I was always kind of awkward
[00:33.30] You never seemed to mind
[00:37.26] Just two kids in high school
[00:40.83] What could we know about life?
[00:52.03] You were my tiny dancer
[00:55.25] Golden hair and yellow eyes
[00:59.51] I was your disaster
[01:02.80] Always brushing you aside, I didn't see it right then
[01:10.05] But in the years that have gone by
[01:13.78] I found I'll never know a better friend
[01:18.20] Than this one I left behind...ohhhh
[01:23.15] So you're getting married
[01:31.16] I hope he’s nothing like our daddies
[01:37.96] When we were young
[01:40.34] And love was something so fucked-up
[01:44.65] It’s sure had its toll on me
[01:52.27] So it’s back to California in my mind
[01:59.50] Petty arguments on bus rides in muted sunlight
[02:06.58] We belong to California, young and free and wild
[02:14.19] Where our dreams grew big as your yellow eyes
[02:19.61] As they looked into mine...
[02:33.55] Do you remember summer nights? Out in the parking lot?
[02:41.37] Checkin out those seniors? Man those drum-line boys were hot
[02:47.34] And we danced under the street lamps, high off that summer heat
[02:55.73] “Just two more years! Just two more years!” and we'd be outta here...ohh
[02:59.94] Now we're getting older
[03:12.38] The world's grown dark and colder
[03:15.69] You're in law school.
[03:21.22] I'm a bar back in the neighborhood.
[03:33.72] So it’s back to California in my mind
[03:40.91] Petty arguments on bus rides in muted sunlight
[03:48.46] We belong to California, young and free and wild
[03:56.02] Where our dreams grew big as your yellow eyes
[04:01.51] As they looked into mine...
[04:07.86] As they looked into mine...
[04:18.07] Ooooohhh oooh ohhh
[04:27.34] Ooooohhh oooh ohhh
[04:36.96]
