"california" lyrics

Yeah you'll be the girl and I'll be the boy
We saw in the movies you never enjoyed
But I knew you were right
'Cause baby you were so left field

Just a couple of kids in the prime of our lives
I'm taking a chance babe I'm rolling of the dice
But I don't have the words
To tell you how I really feel

Like a Sunday drive in Southern California
Picture of you on my bedroom wall
Sketching our names on the bathroom stall
Got me sweating like it's June in Arizona
Try to forget you I don't know how
Tossing my coin in the wishing well

So I'll be the devil and you'll be a saint
You're holding me up at your heavenly gates
Yeah I know you're the one
It kills me that you can't relate

Now I'm shooting my shot yeah I'm pulling a gun
You can decide if you stay or you run
But you stirring me up
You mixing all the love with hate

Yeah you know you're like a Sunday drive in Southern California
Picture of you on my bedroom wall
Sketching our names on the bathroom stall
Got me sweating like it's June in Arizona
Try to forget you I don't know how
Tossing my coin in the wishing well
