[Verse 1]
Is it such a bad idea being brave?
Wearing our own skin to the fray?
If it's not worth risking everything
I would say it wasn't worth having anyway
Where the pine trees turn to palms
I was wondering, could we belong
In a big world we don't understand?
I still believe that we will find our way
[Chorus]
I want you to come to California
I want you to come to California
When they think you should stay
They'll be right and that's okay
I want you to come to California anyway
[Verse 2]
It's an Indian summer this year again
Chasing lot lines back to the developments
Everything is changing, it won't be long
You're the one change I wanted all along
Where the fire lines across the hills
Burn in me and I think you always will
In a low light, where we can't see the ground
I still believe that we will find our way
[Chorus]
I want you to come to California
I want you to come to California
When they think you should stay
They'll be right and that's okay
I want you to come to California anyway
I want you to come to California anyway
I want you to come to California anyway
I want you to come to California
I want you to come to California anyway
