The Beach Boys – California Dreamin' lyrics
All the leaves are brown
And the sky is grey
I've been for a walk
On a winter's day, yeah

I'd be safe and warm
If I was in L. A.
California dreamin'
(California dreamin')
(On such a winter's day)

Stopped into a church
I passed along the way
Well, I got down on my knees
(Got down on my knees)
And I pretend to pray
(I pretend to pray)

You know the preacher likes the cold
(Preacher likes the cold)
He knows I'm gonna stay
(Knows I'm gonna stay)
California dreamin'
(California dreamin')
(On such a winter's day)

All the leaves are brown
(All the leaves are brown)
And the sky is grey
(And the sky is grey)

I've been for a walk
(I've been for a walk)
On a winter's day
(On a winter's day)

I'd be safe and warm
(I'd be safe and warm)
If I was in L. A.
(If I was in L. A.)

California dreamin'
(California dreamin')
(On such a winter's day)
California dreamin'
(On such a winter's day)
California dreamin'
(On such a winter's day)......
