Lyrics

You standing alone there
I pray your waiting for no one but me
The wind brings up the water
And I fall back to swimming in your sea

Hey, that reminds me
Of a very different season
Yeah, that reminds me
Of everywhere we've been
And you should know if I had the chance
Well, there ain't no chance
I wouldn't do it again

So long to yesterday
I can't wait till tomorrow is today
We'll take them one then another
Oh, like the streetlights in L.A.

Hey that reminds me
Of another place and time
Yeah, that reminds me
Of why I want you to be mine
I realized I could never get away
'Cause I need to stay here
In your shine, shine, shine

All the sun on the lake
And all the gold of the Mayans
They've got nothing on my California girl
No, the sun on the lake
And all the gold of the Mayans
They've got nothing on my California
Nothing on my . . .

Hey that reminds me
Of exactly why I called
The truth is, the fact is, that reminds me
Of really nothing at all
It's not that I'm trying to forget
It's that I'm sure the best is yet to come
No, I'm not trying to forget
It's that I'm sure the best is yet to come
