California rain is falling
I can hear the summer calling
Far away, far away
A song that's fading
Put me on a plane tomorrow
I'll try to run from all my sorrow
Far away, far away
From endless waiting
It's so cold here without my sun
I'm so sad here, far away from everyone
What a fool to be ambitious
Moving here with all of my wishes
Far away, far away
From where my heart is
Shut the phone off and pack my bags
No more boys who boast and brag
far away, far away
Where I belong
I'm so sorry for some things I've done
I'll be lonely till I can see my only one
California rain keeps falling
I can hear my old love calling
Far away, far away
Where I started
I'm going back, back where I belong
Gonna catch a train
I gotta get back where I belong
Get back...
