April Smith - California lyrics

All of these things that I wanted for you You set out to find them and I hope that you do But all that I hope for you Is all that I fear The thought of you leaving plays out in my head Will you really do it or turn back instead? When you realize that all you love is right here You're fighting the feeling and a voice that keeps calling for you What will it be, me or California? Your eyes are not laughing now I know it's no joke Cause you've lost something in you since the last time we spoke It's the thing I held on to It's the thing that I loved you for And now that I see it as it falls from your eyes Will I just let it drop? Cause I know now, I realize that it is not mine You are not mine anymore And that you say to me, don't tell me I didn't warn you Cause winter, it just isn't me, and I'm leaving for California You have to go You have to go I hear it in your voice Listen as it echoes (x2) Stop telling me and start walking away And did you expect me to curl up and die While you turn a promise into a lie? Did it surprise you how easily I let you go? It just wasn't meant It must have been fate Cause you realized but a second too late That life without me was a life that you just didn't wanna know And the words that I wished for Darling I'm (something--I can't discern it) for ya So get your a** on a plane And I'll see you in California (x2)
