Well i'm holding on,

Yeah, i'm holding it all in.

When it all goes wrong

You just can't win.

I can't stand another sunrise,

Man, i need a little rain.

Well the angels left this city

And they won't be back again.

I'm leaving california and i'll never look back

I took a picture for ya' but i painted it black.

One more dreamer on a runaway drive,

Now there's one less burned out star in the sky.

Leaving california tonight.

There's a broken dream,

In santa monica crescent heights.

Yeah, that old moonbeam

Well, it's guiding my way tonight.

And the lights are in the rearview

And the stars are in the sky,

And i don't know where i'm going, baby

But it's, it's time to say goodbye.

And i'm leaving california and i'll never look back

I took a picture for ya' but i painted it black.

One more dreamer on a runaway drive,

Now there's one less burned out star in the sky.

Leaving california.

I got a one way ticket, i'm a rolling stone

Imma goodbye kiss it and i'm going, going,

Gone like wind, like fire, like rain

No, i'm never coming back again.

'cause i'm leaving california and i'll never look back

I took a picture for ya' but i painted it black.

One more dreamer on a runaway drive,

Now there's one less burned out star in the sky.

Leaving california.

And i'm leaving california and i'll never look back

I took a picture for ya' but i painted it black.

One more dreamer on a runaway drive,

Now there's one less burned out star in the sky.

Leaving california tonight.
