California in Popular Song Lyrics

	So love, you've had about enough
	Of leaning into the winter wind
	Eyes down and collar up
	While leaves from European trees
	Lie shin-deep in the gutters
	Down these cold and golden streets
	It’s time you left this town behind
	And though you promised not to cry when you said goodbye
	Your eyes are bright with wine
	And oh, so are mine
	But I think it only fair to warn you
	All those songs about California lied
	The stars won’t shine tonight
	It isn’t going to be alright
	Oh dear – you’ve had it up to here
	But if those dark clouds reach to the empty beach
	Well at least the coast is clear
	And so, before you turn to go
	A few hopeful words from some vacuous verse
	You remember from the radio
	Well, maybe so

	So love, you' ve had about enough
	Of leaning into the winter wind
	Eyes down and collar up
	While leaves from European trees
	Lie shindeep in the gutters
	Down these cold and golden streets
	It' s time you left this town behind
	And though you promised not to cry when you said goodbye
	Your eyes are bright with wine
	And oh, so are mine
	But I think it only fair to warn you
	All those songs about California lied
	The stars won' t shine tonight
	It isn' t going to be alright
	Oh dear you' ve had it up to here
	But if those dark clouds reach to the empty beach
	Well at least the coast is clear
	And so, before you turn to go
	A few hopeful words from some vacuous verse
	You remember from the radio
	Well, maybe so

	So love, you' ve had about enough
	Of leaning into the winter wind
	Eyes down and collar up
	While leaves from European trees
	Lie shindeep in the gutters
	Down these cold and golden streets
	It' s time you left this town behind
	And though you promised not to cry when you said goodbye
	Your eyes are bright with wine
	And oh, so are mine
	But I think it only fair to warn you
	All those songs about California lied
	The stars won' t shine tonight
	It isn' t going to be alright
	Oh dear you' ve had it up to here
	But if those dark clouds reach to the empty beach
	Well at least the coast is clear
	And so, before you turn to go
	A few hopeful words from some vacuous verse
	You remember from the radio
	Well, maybe so
