Steve Grand - Back To California Lyrics
Do you remember California? 20-oh-6?You told me we could change this worldI had no doubt about itI was always kind of awkwardYou never seemed to mindJust two kids in high schoolWhat could we know about life?You were my tiny dancerGolden hair and yellow eyesI was your disasterAlways brushing you aside, I didn't see it right thenBut in the years that have gone byI found I'll never know a better friendThan this one I left behind... ohhhhSo you're getting marriedI hope he’s nothing like our daddiesWhen we were youngAnd love was something so *****ed-upIt’s sure had it's toll on meSo it’s back to California in my mindPetty arguments on bus rides in muted sunlightWe belong to California, young and free and wildWhere our dreams grew big as your yellow eyesAs they looked into mine...Do you remember summer nights? Out in the parking lot?Checkin out those seniors? Man those drum-line boys were hotAnd we danced under the street lamps, high off that summer heat“Just two more years! Just two more years! ” and we'd be outta here... ohhNow we're getting olderThe world's grown dark and colderYou're in law school.I'm a bar back in the neighborhood.So it’s back to California in my mindPetty arguments on bus rides in muted sunlightWe belong to California, young and free and wildWhere our dreams grew big as your yellow eyesAs they looked into mine...As they looked into mine...Ooooohhh oooh ohhhOoooohhh oooh ohhh
