California - Belinda Carlisle

I remember I was in the tanning salon

When I heard that river phoenix was gone

They say that only the good die young

But that ain’t true where I come from

California… california

It took a lot for me to say

I want to walk away, la From the sharks and the chardonnay

In california… california

4 in the morning we were in our beds

The swaying palm trees above our heads

Woke up to a primal rumbling sound

When the northridge quake ripped open the

Ground

California… california

It took a lot for me to say

I want to walk away la From the sharks and the chardonnay

In california… in california

Golden state, I’m back in the golden state

Golden state of mind

Golden state, I’m back in the golden state

Golden state of mind

It took a lot for me to say

I want to walk away la From the sharks and the chardonnay

In california… in california

Walk, walk away

I remember I was in the tanning salon

When I heard that river phoenix was gone…
