California Lyrics - Slowtide

When I hear these cheesy odes to california 

these songs that every dork can sing along 

I wish that I had been to California 

to prove these naive fairy-tales as wrong 

But I guess my thoughts are born of the frustration 

that if I ever find my way down there 

I'd probably build up the same relation 

and everything I said wouldn't be fair 

'Cause my sun shines through smoking chimneys 

I always loved the atmosphere 

in the heart of the city 

how could somebody like me not like it here?

And if the time comes that you drop the pills in 

'cause you can't find the way out of your mind 

see, everyone gets sad, even Brian Wilson 

'cause happiness today is hard to find 

And everyone around here longs for sunshine 

the rain keeps falling all through the year 

but to emigrate would probably be the wrong sign 

home is where the heart is, my heart's here
