Should've figured that you'd go back to New York
Don't consider me when you run back to her
You don't have to hide it, I know why you went
Said you needed space, I know better than that
Mm, mm, mm, mm
Could've fought for you but I just let you leave
Hurt too much to consider you didn't love me
The mountains of LA will weep through the night
Driving down sunset's a terrible sight
Mm, mm, mm, mm
Left me and the ocean for your old flame
Holding back my tears, I couldn't make you stay
Can't quit this, so damn wicked to leave
California and me
I imagine you holding her in your arms
Laughing 'bout how I thought that you were the onе
I get so anxious and maybe I'm young
The first sign of troublе when I bite my tongue
Mm, mm, mm, mm
Left me and the ocean for your old flame
Holding back my tears, I couldn't make you stay
Can't quit this, so damn wicked to leave
California and me
