California

I wrote a song for you

When I heard about you leaving

I was riding in my car

Staring out the window

When the sun set on the highway

Half across the country

You were riding with the top down

Just like I knew you would be



Singing California can you hear me now?

Sing me a song that I can feel somehow

Cause I don't need another reason to turn it up too loud

Oh no, can you hear me now?



I wrote a song for you

On the blank side of a coaster

With a pen I had to borrow

I was crawling off the wagon

So I bought another round

For some guy from out of town

And I made him feel like staying

Just the way you'd done for me

But did you leave the top down

In that desert in the dust cloud?

Cause I can hear you burning out the stars



Singing California can you hear me now?

Sing me a song that I can feel somehow

Cause I don't need another reason to turn it up too loud

Oh no, can you hear me now?



So won't you call me when you get there?

On that warm day in November

Let the sun set on the ocean

And let yourself remember



Singing California can you hear me now?

Sing me a song that I can feel somehow

Cause I don't need another reason to turn it up too loud

Oh no, can you hear me now?

No, can you hear me?

Can you hear me?

Can you hear me now?
