lyrics

California, what the hell happened to ya?
you were once part of my own golden dream

Long drive from a pink motel
hugged the coast in a car we bought to sell
midday heat shimmers and blurs
where the road and the sky and the distance merge

And I think of the time
you were a state of mind
I still think of the times

California, what the hell happened to ya
You were once part of my own golden dream
California, you were once part of my gold dream

Lying on the bed I remember it all
too hot to sleep got some ice down the hall
drank beer as we sang along to the radio
the radio

And I think of the times you were a state of mind
Snow globe and a Hollywood sign

California, what the hell happened to ya
You were once part of my own golden dream
California, you were once part of my gold dream

Gold dream.... ( and I think of the times, you were a state of mind).

My turn at the wheel through Monteray
stop for gas, a photograph, headed for LA
as all the views rush by Palm trees push up through the sky
Palm trees push up through the sky

California
You were once part of my gold dream
California
You were once part of my old dream
California
You were once part of my gold dream
California
We were once part of the same dream
