You told me we could change this world I had no doubt about it I was always kind of awkward You never seemed to mind
Just two kids in high school
What could we know about life
You were my tiny dancer
Golden hair and yellow eyes
I was your disaster
Always brushing you aside I didn't see it right then
But in the years we've said goodbye
I found I'll never find a better friend And than this one I left behind Oh So you're getting married
I hope he's nothing like our daddies
When we were young And love was something so ******-up
It's sure had it's toll on me
So it's back to California in my mind
Petty arguments on bus rides in muted sunlight
We belong to California Young and free and wild Where our dreams grew big as your yellow eyes As they looked into mine
Do you remember summer nights Out in the parking life
Checkin out those seniors Man those drum-line boys were hot And we danced under the street lamps High off that summer heat
"Just two more years Just two more years " And we'd be outta here oh Now we're getting older
The world's grown dark and colder
You're in law school I'm a bar back in the neighborhood
So it's back to California in my mind
Petty arguments on bus rides in muted sunlight
We belong to California young and free and wild Where our dreams grew big as your yellow eyes As they looked into mine
As they looked into mine
Oh Oh
