California Dreamin
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
All the leaves are brown and the sky is gray
I've been for a walk on a winter's day
I'd be safe and warm if I was in L.A.
California dreamin' on such a winter's day
Stopped in to a church I passed along the way
Oh, I got down on my knees and I pretend to pray
You know the preacher likes the cold now
He knows I'm gonna stay
California dreamin' on such a winter's day
California dreamin' on such a winter's day
All the leaves are brown and the sky is gray
I've been for a walk on a winter's day
If I didn't tell her I could leave today
California dreamin' on such a winter's day
California dreamin', dream on
California dreamin', dream on
California dreamin', dream on
