The Stars Fell on California
THE STARS FELL ON CALIFORNIA
High on North Doheny, lookin down over the Sunset Way
L.A glowed, so pretty
my imagination ran away
Santa Anna winds had cleared her face again
street light eyes sparkled brightly
forming avenues of reds and blues
her angel face delights me,
I used to wonder where the stars go, well now I know
So I'll tell ya,
If you'll spend some time round Hollywood and Vine
There in the streets in Hollywood glory
names in the street tell the story
And the stars, fell on California
in a multitude of color
in a place we now call home
Because you know stars fell on California,
But I think I better warn ya
they take to the air,
when the darkness comes
One by one I watched them come
with flair and sophistication
one by one they have set the stage,
for a truly rare occasion
As the curtain closes, dawn exposes
a Cinderella morning
only the best are left there to rest,
There in the streets of the city
And the stars, fell on California
in a multitude of color
in a place we now call home
Because you know stars fell on California,
But I think I better warn ya
they take to the air,
when the darkness comes
