California, leaving California
California, leaving California
No one but me is walking
And the palms that give no shade
I'm leaving you today
California, leaving California
California, leaving California
How cruel was I to think that
I could make you change
Oh, give me some shade
Oh, England, come soon!
How could I believe that I could live and breathe in you?
Ooh, ooh, ooh
California, killed me California
California, killed me California
I think it's time to leave
I think it's time to leave
I told no one I'd stay
I think it's time to leave
Ooh, ooh, ooh.
