West Coast Friendship - Owl City

Are you out there?

Where the rainy days begin

To feel rather sad and the walls are closing in like the darkness around me It’s so hard to look away when the daylight doesn’t ever stay

Above this dull apartment view, oh I will surround you

It’s quite clear that I’m stuck here

So I’ll devise a plan and cut out a door in my new living room floor

The porch light is so bright

That I will quickly sneak down the dark metal shape of the rusty fire escape

I bought a one-way ticket

Cuz I knew I’d never see the ground

Unless I was aboard a jet plane and we were going down

When I wiped the tears from my eyes

The warm water took me by surprise

And I woke up beside the ocean and I realized

I must be in California

Aloha, my happy west coast friends

Do you feel alive when the breaking waves arrive and rush all around you?

The beach homes in Oceanside are quite well-known by the evening tide

And we can sleep where we reside with redwoods around us The blue air is up there and could I bring it down,

I’d bottle it up and save it for a sweet summer night

I bought a one-way ticket

Cuz I knew I’d never see the ground

Unless I was aboard a jet plane and we were going down

When I wiped the tears from my eyes, the warm water took me by surprise

And I woke up beside the ocean and I realized

I must be in California

I must be in California

Am I awake or is this just a dream?

The New Year is out here and

I will make a lovely list of your charms

So I’ll never feel alone in your arms

I must be in California

I must be in California

Oh my dear, I can feel you here, Oh my dear, I can feel you here

I must be in California
