Thought I'd never reach the water Had to cross the desert and the great divide Drinking only golden promises With white lines in my eyes Oh, sons and daughters Followed all the signs to paradise Believing only dreams and promises With starlight in their eyes [Chorus] Oh, California It's the one big love that you cannot end Oh, California It's not like before but we can still pretend I was swimming in freezing water I could hear the music from the other side Looked up and I saw my father And tears were in his eyes [Chorus] We all still live for Friday night Old habits die hard when you get them right There's a broken dream in every grain of sand But it's as close as I can get to the promised land Oh, California I can see you now from the top of that hill Oh, California Though many have gone I have the memories still Oh, California I can hear the sound of the mission bell Oh, California We're one stone's throw from heaven Thought I'd never reach the water Had to cross the desert and the great divide Drinking only golden promises With white lines in my eyes Oh, California It's the one big love that you cannot end Oh, California Yeah I can't leave you now Oh, California
