Robert Ellis - California lyrics

[Verse 1] It was a long way to go From Louisiana to Laredo With everything that they owned Boxed up in the back of a van She would have gone to the moon If that's what it took to follow him It's funny what love makes you do [Verse 2] Standing alone There in the kitchen she's packing up plates again Standing alone She is remembering every fight with him Thinking alone What am I doing here in this ghost town? Now that he's gone There isn't a reason for me to stick around [Chorus] And she says maybe I'll move to California With the unbroken part of my heart I still have left Maybe I'll fall in love again someday I'm not gonna hold my breath I'm not gonna hold my breath [Verse 3] Which way to go When every road leads away from the things you wanted Which way to go When every memory is built like a home that's haunted Closing your eyes Dream of a place where things turn out the way you plan Everything dies Dream of a place where the living resides again [Chorus] And she says maybe I'll move to California With the unbroken part of my heart I still have left Maybe I'll fall in love again someday I'm not gonna hold my breath I'm not gonna hold my breath [Bridge] Maybe I'll move to California With the unbroken part of my heart I still have left Maybe I'll fall in love again someday [Chorus Variation] Maybe I'll move to California With the unbroken part of my heart I still have left Maybe I'll fall in love again someday I'm not gonna hold my breath I'm not gonna hold my breath I'm not gonna hold my breath
