Owl City - West Coast Friendship Lyrics
Are you out there where the rainy days begin to feel rather sadAnd the walls are closing in like the darkness around meIt's so hard to look away when the daylight doesn't ever stayAbove this dull apartment view - oh, I will surround youIt's quite clear that I'm stuck hereSo I'll devise a plan and cut out a door in my new living room floorThe porch light is so brightThat I will quickly sneak down the dark metal shape of the rusty fire escape.I bought a one-way ticketCause I knew I'd never see the groundUnless I was aboard a jet plane and we were going down.When I wiped the tears from my eyesThe warm water took me by surpriseAnd I woke up beside the ocean I realized:I must be in California.Aloha, my happy West Coast friends - do you feel aliveWhen the breaking waves arrive and rush all around you?The beach homes in Oceanside are quite well-known by the evening tideAnd we can sleep where we reside with redwoods around us.The blue air is up there and could I bring it down,I'd bottle it up and save it for a sweet summer night.I bought a one-way ticketCause I knew I'd never see the groundUnless I was aboard a jet plane and we were going down.When I wiped the tears from my eyesThe warm water took me by surpriseAnd I woke up beside the ocean I realized:I must be in California.(I must be in California.)Am I awake or is this just a dream?The New Year is out hereAnd I will make a lovely list of your charmsSo I'll never feel alone in your arms.I must be in California.(I must be in California.)Oh my dear, I can feel you hereOh my dear, I can feel you everywhere.(I must be in California.)
