Why I Came to California lyrics

Zuma

Oh, I'd like to walk the beach on Zuma

Watching all those pretty girls

Venice

It gets really strange going through Venice

There's a different attitude

On a many summer evening

Found me searching for the fire

The elusive seed of childhood

Then became my one desire

There were places in the valley

Where they said that I could find it

There were rhythms in the distance

In the ancient elder forest

That is why I came to California

It's the strangest groove 

That I have ever known

All the youth-seekers come to California

Following the fountain in their mind

San Francisco

Catch a cable car to where your dreams go

There's a lot of make-believe

San Diego

From LA, you'll find out 

Where your dreams flow

From the hillside to the desert

Following the map inside me

I can feel the road is leading

To the treasure that will guide me

There were places in the valley

Where they said that I could find it

There were rhythms in the distance

In the ancient elder forest

That is why I came to California

It's the freest groove 

That I have ever known

All the youth-seekers come to California

Following the fountain in their mind

In their mind

Zuma

Oh, I'd like to walk the beach on Zuma

Watching all those pretty girls

Venice

It gets really strange going through Venice

There's a different attitude

(Searchin' for the fire)

That is why I came to California (California)

It's the purest groove 

That I have ever known

All the youth-seekers come to California

Following the fountain in their mind

That is why I came to California (California)

It's the strangest groove 

That I have ever known (California)

All the youth-seekers come to California

Following the fountain in their mind

That is why I came to California
