Tony Orlando - California Woman on My Mind lyrics

Look at me and see a guy who's sad But I never thought a woman cold make me feel so sad Just flew into JFK and got off the plane While thinking to myself “I must have been insane” To leave her in LA at the airport in the rain Her tears fell While the silver bird taxied toward the runway to the sky Looking through the window I tried to smile goodbye Had to turn away Cause I broke down and cried As I took off in this feel all the emptiness inside (Chorus) Oh how could I live through a New York winter With that California woman on my mind It would be so hard to get myself together Now that she's not with me all the time And even though I'll try I won't forget her And all the tender love that once was mine How can I live through a New York winter With that California woman on my mind I'm ashamed Shouldn't have told him not to make her fall for me in vain Recalling tender words she whispered as I played the game Thought I'd come out the winner But I'm the fool to blame How she pleaded to come with me Why did I refuse her Repeat Chorus Oh how could I live through a New York winter With that California woman on my mind
