All the leaves are brown
And the sky is grey
I've been for a walk
On a winter's day
I'd be safe and warm
If I was in L.A.
California dreamin'
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
You know the preacher likes the cold
Preacher likes the cold
He knows I'm gonna stay
California dreamin'
On such a winter's day
 
All the leaves are brown
And the sky is grey
I've been for a walk
On a winter's day
If I didn't tell her
I could leave today
Oh California dreamin'
On such a winter's day
Oh California dreamin'
On such a winter's day
