"Half Moon Bay" lyrics

This ain't a threat, but I think I better warn ya
Gonna fall in love if you go to California
I did, and this is how I know

By the beach, north of San Jose
Met the right girl, and it sounds cliché
But we decided not to take it slow
I said, "Why wait?
You're my soulmate."
Took her by the hand in the Golden State
Now that you're mine
Things are gonna be fine
First came love, then a baby carriage
Hardly knew the people at my own damn marriage
But an open bar can open your mind

You save my life with every word you say
You shine your light for me to find the way
Just hold me tight and cross your heart to stay
Here with me, born to be
Every part of you in Half Moon Bay

Up in Tiburon where the girls are warm
We stay inside while the rain clouds form
And thank God for rainy days like these
And just when the time has come to retire
Baby starts crying, so we dance by the fire
Always does the trick, you better believe

You save my life with every word you say
You shine your light for me to find the way
Just hold me tight and cross your heart to stay
Here with me, born to be
Every part of you

Why go slow if it's nice and steady?
We all know it's in the stars already
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Why say no if yes feels right?
You just got to go where it feels like home

This ain't a threat, but I think I better warn ya
Gonna fall in love if you go to California
I did, and this is how I know

You save my life with every word you say
You shine your light for me to find the way
Just hold me tight and cross your heart to stay
Here with me, born to be
Every part of you

You save my life with every word you say
You shine your light so I can find my way
Just hold me tight and cross your heart to stay
Here with me, born to be
Every part of you in Half Moon Bay

Half Moon Bay
Half, hmm, hmm
Half Moon Bay
