California, the golden state
I long for the sun, the hills, the sand, and the mist of the waves
Come walk with me we'll wonder all our days
Take me back where the ocean meets the sky
Where the palm trees sway and the stars, they dance at night
Take me back to the land of the golden sun
California is where I belong
Take me back
California, that southern state of mind
Time moves in slow motion and cares left behind
Come gather around the fire, while the planets a-line
Take me back where the ocean meets the sky
Where the palm trees sway and the stars, they dance at night
Take me back to the land of the golden sun
California is where I belong
Take me back
(Oh oh)
California is where I belong
Take me back
Take me back
Take me back
Take me back
