Verse 1:
There's a cloud outside my window,
and it's dark
seems the rain is soon to come,
Thunder rolls and lightning flashes,
and it seems that the cares of life have come.
Verse 2:
There's a rose outside my window,
withered by, by a cold and evil heart
It needs a little light and water,
to restore all that has been torn apart
Chorus:
so im ready to leave on that plane to california,
maybe life's better, maybe life's better
maybe I can see when i get to california
just a little clearer, and dream a little bigger
Verse 3:
Theres a bird beside my window,
so afraid, to fly because of rain,
instead he hovers in a corner,
and lets go all the dreams he once made plain.
Chorus
Bridge:
They say it never rains in california,
dreams are made in california,
maybe ill find love
finally rise above there when i leave
