California Dreamer Songtext / Lyric

California dreamer

Tell me why did you go

I carved your ever fading figure

Into the ever dying snow



I'll be around, I'll be around, I'll be around

Like a teenager in town

Where all the other young lovers are found



And I think I might have heard you on the radio

But the radio waves were like snow



And you were dreaming of Los Angeles

While I was singing songs you know

You quietly gave away the winter clothes I made for you

While I made angels in the snow



I never would have looked if you just asked me to

Or come to me before the preacher

Now you're a survivor...






And I just thought I might have heard you on the radio

But the radio waves were like snow

I just thought I might have heard you on the radio

But the radio waves were like snow



Do the young stay pretty, do the pretty stay quick?

You know but you never surrender

The city doesn't belong to you anymore

California dreamer



(la la la)



You dream of seasons that never die

And you're the oceans that never touch the ice (x2)



You dream of seasons that never die

And you're the oceans that never touch the ice

Surrender, the city asunder

Pictures, getting younger and younger...



And I think I might have heard you on the radio

But the radio waves were like snow (x2)



Do the young stay pretty, do the pretty stay quick?

You know but you never surrender

The city doesn't belong to you anymore

California dreamer



I'll be around, I'll be around, I'll be around

Like a teenager in town

With all the other young lovers

Their mothers been found

California dreamer
