Only when you're in California

You drive along the coast

The towns you pass are often ruthless

They leave you chasing ghosts

Leave you chasing ghosts

I'm dreaming of blue skies

If I what if I close my eyes

I rush down the freeway

Slowly peeling back my brain

Fighting for patience

While moving to a faster lane

I'm trying to enjoy the California rain

Someone sang that when you're lonely

You end up back and forth

Tonight I'm leaving San Diego

I take the 5 up North

I'm chasing blue skies

I'm starting to blur the lines

I rush down the freeway

Slowly peeling back my brain

Fighting for patience

While moving to a faster lane

I'm trying to enjoy the California rain

California rain

I rush down the freeway

Slowly peeling back my brain

Fighting for patience

While moving to a faster lane

I'm trying to enjoy the California rain

California rain
