All the leaves are brown And the sky is gray I've been for a walk On a winter's day I'd be safe and warm If I was in L.A Ohh, California dreamin' On such a winter's day, yeah ♪ I stopped into a Church That I passed along the way Well, I had to get down on my knees And I began to pray Don't you know the preacher gets me cause Cause he knows I'm gonna stay, yeah Ooh, California dreamin' (California dreamin') On such a winter's day Oh such a winter's day If I didn't tell her That I could leave her today I'd still be that California dreamer On every winter's day I'd still be that California dreamer I'm searching for my mind Searching for something that needs me here Oh this California dreamer Dream on, on Dream on Something's holding me here In L.A Something's holding me here in L.A I'd like to know I'd like to know And how dare you leave something at home That I've got to find? I'd like to know I'd like to know I'm still that California dreamer Dream on, dream on Dream on, dream on Dream on, oh dream on (On such winter's day)
