California Friends
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.
Will you come a little closer?
I've got something to show ya
Look at my friend in California
She really likes the freckles on my face
Won't you come and hold my hand now?
I think that you might wanna
Do you ever listen to Madonna?
Yeah, I really like the freckle on her face
If I think that you might like me
I might start getting lonely
When I think about how you can't hold me
Do you like the freckles on my face?
And if I take you to a movie
Things might get groovy
Oh, but don't start thinking you can fool me
Yeah, I know you like the freckles on my face
I think I love you but then I think: No way!
I gotta go but I wanna stay, just stay!
I guess I'll save it for another day, well okay?
I think I love you but then I think: No way!
I gotta go but I wanna stay, just stay!
I guess I'll save it for another day, well okay?
Will you come a little closer?
I've got something to show ya
Check out this band from California
I can make you a playlist of their songs
Won't you come and hold me close now?
I think that you might wanna
But don't tell anyone, don't need no drama
And then we can move it right along
I think I love you but then I think: No way!
I gotta go but I wanna stay, just stay!
I guess I'll save it for another day, well okay?
I think I love you but then I think: No way!
I gotta go but I wanna stay, just stay!
I guess I'll save it for another day, well okay?
I get mixed up in my head, you do too
But I don't forget a thing you've said
Well that's true, yeah, that's true
So hard to enjoy the time that you're in
'Cause when it starts getting comfortable
Yeah, it's ending, yeah, it's ending
I think I love you but then I think: No way!
I gotta go but I wanna stay, just stay!
I guess I'll save it for another day, well okay?
I think I love you but then I think: No way!
I gotta go but I wanna stay, just stay!
I guess I'll save it for another day, well okay?
I think I love you but then I think: No way!
I gotta go but I wanna stay, just stay!
I guess I'll save it for another day, well okay?
