California

Tried to think of a way to let you off
I hate to keep you waiting
The drive home proved to be a little long
The wait can be draining

Endure what you can
I know it's tough
Believe me I can tell
You've had enough

Oh I was gone but now I'm back in California
What time can we meet, I got something for ya
I don't need much
Baby now that I'm back in California

I took a different road even though it was late
Even though it'd been raining
Tried to keep sleepy eyes from wandering off
No more complaining

Endured what you could
All the while with a smile
The sign a while back
Read just a few more miles

Look, I was gone but now I'm back in California
What time do you wanna meet, i got something for ya
I don't need much
Baby now that I'm back in California

And any time that we've ever spent apart
Baby, I won't lie;
Every second felt like I was missing a piece of my heart
