California Dreamin'

All the leaves are brown and the sky is gray
I went for a walk on a winter's day
I'd be so safe and warm if I was in L.A.
California dreamin' on such a winter's day
I stopped into a church (yes I did) and I passed along the way
And I got down on my knees (down on my knees) and I pretend to pray
You know the preacher, he likes it cold
Cause he knows I'm gonna stay (cause he knows I'm gonna stay)
California dreamin' (California dreamin') on such a winter's day
All the of leaves are brown and the sky is so gray
I went for a walk on a cool winter's day, yeah
I'd be so safe and warm if I was in L.A.
California dreamin' (California dreamin') on such a winter's day (California dreamin')
On such a winter's day (California dreamin')
On such a winter's day
California, California dreamin'
California dreamin'
Play that for me
You know it's just a dream
Dream on
California dreamin'
