California
I know that I jumped at
The first chance I had to leave
I didn't mean to be so mean
I know that I could've stayed
And tried to make things work
It would've made things worse
You say that I don't know, I didn't give you a chance
And life doesn't always play out like a movie script
Well what if mine did
I'm leaving here, leaving California
Write me a letter or mail me a postcard
And some things are better left unsaid
I'll write you a letter and tell ya I adore ya
This isn't a competition
But you took it in all its worth
And you thought that you were winning
But you're farthest from first
You say that I don't know, I didn't give you a chance
And life doesn't always play out like a movie script
Well what if mine did
I'm leaving here, leaving California
Write me a letter or mail me a postcard
And some things are better left unsaid
I'll write you a letter and tell ya I adore ya
I would drive all night to get away
To get away
I would close my eyes and pretend
Rain clouds covered my head
I don't call this home out loud anymore
But I could never let it go
I'm leaving here, leaving California
Write me a letter or mail me a postcard
And some things are better left unsaid
I'll write you a letter and tell ya I adore ya
I won't go back, back to California
That place is full of ghosts I'll warn ya
I can't go back, back to California
The first chance I had to leave
I didn't mean to be so mean
I know that I could've stayed
And tried to make things work
It would've made things worse
You say that I don't know, I didn't give you a chance
And life doesn't always play out like a movie script
Well what if mine did
I'm leaving here, leaving California
Write me a letter or mail me a postcard
And some things are better left unsaid
I'll write you a letter and tell ya I adore ya
This isn't a competition
But you took it in all its worth
And you thought that you were winning
But you're farthest from first
You say that I don't know, I didn't give you a chance
And life doesn't always play out like a movie script
Well what if mine did
I'm leaving here, leaving California
Write me a letter or mail me a postcard
And some things are better left unsaid
I'll write you a letter and tell ya I adore ya
I would drive all night to get away
To get away
I would close my eyes and pretend
Rain clouds covered my head
I don't call this home out loud anymore
But I could never let it go
I'm leaving here, leaving California
Write me a letter or mail me a postcard
And some things are better left unsaid
I'll write you a letter and tell ya I adore ya
I won't go back, back to California
That place is full of ghosts I'll warn ya
I can't go back, back to California
