California dreaming 

All the leaves are brown

All the leaves are brown

And the sky is grey

And the sky is grey

I've been for a walk

I've been for a walk

On a winter's day

On a winter's day

I'd be safe and warm

I'd be safe and warm

If I was in L.A.

If I was in L.A.

California dreaming

On such a winter's day

Stopped into a church

I passed along the way

Well, I got down on my knees

Got down on my knees

And I pretend to pray

I pretend to pray

You know the preacher likes the cold

Preacher likes the cold

He knows I'm gonna stay

Knows I'm gonna stay

California dreaming

California dreaming

On such a winter's day

All the leaves are brown

All the leaves are brown

And the sky is grey

And the sky is grey

I've been for a walk

I've been for a walk

On a winter's day

On a winter's day

If I didn't tell her

If I didn't tell her

I could leave today

I could leave today

California dreaming

California dreaming

On such a winter's day

California dreaming

On such a winter's day

California dreaming

On such a winter's day
