So at last Southern California,
Sun sets like a long goodbye
I've been dreaming about it for days
But I don't ask why
I can feel it in my bones, it's a careless season
It started just the other day,
And what did you expect that just for no reason I packed it in and drove away?
Now I don't mean to pin this one on you darlin'
It's time I found something good.
When it comes right down, you're just one of many people that never really understood.
So at last Southern California,
Sun sets like a long goodbye
I've been dreaming about it for days
But I don't ask why
As I drove into a city painted on the desert
With everything 10 miles high, hard to believe that nobody will see what
I see through my blood shot eyes,
Now I don't mean to sound so young and naive, but I think we've found something good,
And now I can feel me leaving who I used to be as we're driving into Hollywood
So at last Southern California,
Sun sets like a long goodbye
I've been dreaming about it for days
But I don't ask why
So at last Southern California,
Sun sets enough to get by
I've been dreaming about it for days
And now I know why
I can feel it in my bones, its a careless season,
It started when I woke today
And now that I'm here it's all so very clear
The reason that I drove away
Now I don't mean to call so early now darlin',
But the waves just feel so good,
And I'll always come around
And watch the sun go down,
Just like I knew you would
So at last Southern California
Sun sets like a long goodbye
I've been dreaming about it for days
But I don't ask why
So at last Southern California
Sun sets enough to get by
I've been dreaming about it for days
And now I know why
