California lyrics

You don't ever have to be stronger than you really are

When you're lying in my arms

Baby, you don't ever have to

Go faster than your fastest pace or faster than my fastest cars

I shouldn't have done it but I read it in your letter

You said to a friend that you wish you were doing better

I wanted to reach out but I never said a thing

I shouldn't have done it but I read it in your letter

You said to a friend that you wish you were doing better

I wanted to call you but I didn't say a thing

(Two, three, four)

Ooh, I'll pick you up

If you come back to America, just hit me up

'Cause this is crazy love

I'll catch you on the flipside

If you come back to California

You should just hit me up

We'll do whatever you want, travel wherever, have fun

We'll hit up all the old places

We'll have a party, we'll dance till dawn

I'll pick up all of your folks and all of your Rolling Stones

Your favorite liquor off the top-shelf

I'll throw a party, all night long

You don't ever have to be stronger than you really are

When you're lying in my arms

And honey, you don't ever have to act cooler than you think you should

You're brighter than the brightest stars

You're scared to win, scared to lose

I've heard the war was over if you really choose

The one in and around you

You hate the heat, you got the blues

You're changing like the weather, oh, that's so like you

The Santa Ana moves you

(Two, three, four)

Ooh, I'll pick you up

If you come back to America, just hit me up

'Cause this is crazy love

I'll catch you on the flipside

If you come back to California

You should just hit me up

We'll do whatever you want, travel wherever, have fun

We'll hit up all the old places

We'll have a party, we dance till dawn

I'll pick up all of your folks and all of your Rolling Stones

Your favorite liquor off the top-shelf

I'll throw a party, all night long

Ooh, I'll pick you up

If you come back to America, just hit me up

'Cause this is crazy love

I'll catch you on the flipside

If you come back to California

You should just hit me up
