Lyrics Ron Pope – Come To California

Hotels and cigarettes and empty bars where I just sit
And contemplate the things that I can’t know
And all I ask of you are honest words and simple truths
A place to lay my head when I get lost

Nothing here is right
I guess I’ll shut my eyes

Come to California
‘Cause I’ve been lonely for you
We can stay up all night
Just to watch the sunrise
Come to California
Nothing’s right without you
And even in the daylight
Well I can’t see the sky

I watch the waves, they disappear beneath the boardwalk
Then I blink my eyes and step farther down the beach
And I’ll get drunk this time on Boone’s Farm wine
In my defense I’d like to say at least it’s always sweet

Nothing here is right
I guess I’ll shut my eyes

Come to California
‘Cause I’ve been lonely for you
We can stay up all night
Just to watch the sunrise
Come to California
‘Cause nothing’s right without you
And even in the daylight
I can’t see the sky

And I don’t know if I believe
I’m everything I should be

Love, I am drowning in this change
That’s washing over everything I know like tumbling waves
Ah

Come to California
‘Cause I’ve been lonely for you
We can stay up all night
Just to watch the sunrise
Come to California
‘Cause nothing’s right without you
And even in the daylight
I can’t see the sky
I can’t see the sky

Come to California
‘Cause I’ve been lonely for you
(I can’t see the sky)
We can stay up all night
Just to watch the sunrise
(Lord I can’t see the sky)
Come to California
‘Cause nothing’s right without you
And even in the daylight
(I can’t see it)
(I can’t see it)
Well I can’t see the sky
(I can’t see it)
