Goodbye From California - Lindsey Ray

I dipped my toes in the ocean today

I felt the sun shining down on my face

There isn’t even one single cloud in the sky

The only sign of doubt is the one that’s behind me

So tell me, how are you?

What did you think that I would do

When I told you I was leaving?

You didn’t blink, you just assumed

That you’re the one I needed

And I tried, and I tried, and I tried some more

And then I thought what is all this trying for

Don’t say I didn’t warn ya

Goodbye from California

I’m in my flip flops on Hollywood and Vine

I heard it snowed another foot there last night

And even though the life I have at home is ending

I’ve really got a feeling that it’s all beginning now

So tell me, how are you?

What did you think that I would do

When I told you I was leaving?

You didn’t blink, you just assumed

That you’re the one I needed

And I tried, and I tried, and I tried some more

And then I thought what is all this trying for?

Don’t say I didn’t warn ya

Goodbye from California

Now that I’ve had a taste

Got no more time to waste

With my head up in the clouds

Is that a lump in your throat

As you’re reading what I wrote?

It’s over now

What did you think that I would do

When I told you I was leaving?

You didn’t blink, you just assumed

That you’re the one I needed

And I tried, and I tried, and I tried some more

And then I thought what is all this trying for?

Don’t say I didn’t warn ya

What did you think that I would do

When I told you I was leaving?

You didn’t blink, you just assumed

That you’re the one I needed

And I tried, and I tried, and I tried some more

And then I thought what is all this trying for?

Don’t say I didn’t warn ya

Goodbye from California
