Leaving California

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Well, I'm holding on Yeah, I'm holding it all in When it all goes wrong And you just can't win I can't stand another sunrise Man, I need a little rain Well, the angels left this city And they won't be back again [Chorus] Now I'm leaving California and I'll never look back I took a picture for you, but I painted it black One more dreamer on a runaway drive Now there's one less burned-out star in this sky Leaving California tonight [Verse 2] There's a broken dream in Santa Monica and Crescent Heights Yeah, that only Moonbeam Well, it's guiding my way tonight And the lights are in the rearview And the stars are in the sky And I don't know where I'm going, baby But it's time to say goodbye [Chorus] And I'm leaving California and I'll never look back I took a picture for you, but I painted it black One more dreamer on a runaway drive Now there's one less burned-out star in this sky Leaving California tonight [Bridge] I've got a one-way ticket, I'm a rolling stone I'ma goodbye kiss it And I'm going, going, gone Like wind, like fire, like rain No, I'm never coming back again [Chorus] 'Cause I'm leaving California and I'll never look back I took a picture for you, but I painted it black One more dreamer on a runaway drive Now there's one less burned-out star in this sky Leaving California Now I'm leaving California and I'll never look back I took a picture for you, but I painted it black One more dreamer on a runaway drive Now there's one less burned-out star in this sky Leaving California tonight
