California lyrics

Memories fade slowly

No, please don't go, not yet

I was your one and only

And I'm not ready to forget

All the times we shared together

All the words we never said

But I remember...

When we almost went to California

We almost fell in love in the sand

And you almost told me to be your woman

So you'll always almost be my man

I think it was late last summer

I saw the distance in your eyes

You said that you found another

And then you told me not to cry

But I knew that's when it started

The beginning of the end

And I remember...

When we almost went to California

We almost fell in love in the sand

And you almost told me to be your woman

So you'll always almost be my man

I guess it was late last winter

Snow falling all around

Wedding bells rang, she entered

But I left without a sound

Oh, I know she'll always love you

But heaven knows that so will I

And I’ll remember...

When we almost went to California

We almost fell in love in the sand

And you almost told me to be your woman

So you'll always almost be my man

That you'll always almost be my man
