I've been searching my mind
I need a place to hide, it gets so hard to find
I've been searching my dreams
Faces look so strange, all the rooms have changed
California, you run so far away
California, this time, you're gonna stay
I've been searching my life
Somewhere in the past, nothing ever lasts
I've been searching your eyes
It's so hard to breathe in your eternity
California, you run so far away
California, this time, you're gonna stay
With me for a little while
I wanna see that smile again
California, you run so far away
California, this time, I'm gonna stay
