I got a cottage with a sea view 

I got a regular summer tan 

I've been working up the courage to call you all year, ohhh 

There is nothing I can say 

There are no good words left anyway 

Besides people are cruel 

And the world still moves without you, ohhh 



Welcome to my Californian home 

You don't have to call me you can leave when you want 

There's a picture by my bed 

There's a light in your eyes 

I don't know 

Well I don't know 

Why you still feel alone 



And we were dying from the get go 

I was dreaming but you never believed 

I was trying to fit myself in the spaces between, ohhh 

And you were kind and sometimes cruel 

You said all the world's love couldn't satisfy you 

And nothing could have hurt me as much as the truth 

Ohhh darling 



Welcome to my Californian home 

You don't have to call me you can leave when you want 

There's a picture by my bed 

There's a light in your eyes 

I don't know 

Tell me ‘cause I want to find out 

Do you still feel alone? 



Love is elusive when you search for it 

Don't I know 

Happiness sometimes it just creeps in 

Don't I know 

I'm going crazy 

I've been wondering 

Do you still feel alone? 



I need to find 

Some kind of peace of mind 

I need to find 



I got a cottage with a sea view 

I got a regular summer tan 

I know that I deserve more 

But I still want you 



Welcome to my Californian home 

You don't have to call me you can leave when you want 

There's a picture by my bed 

There's a light in your eyes 

I don't know 

Tell me ‘cause I want to find out 

Do you still feel? 



Welcome to my California 

(I need to find) 

Even though I'm no good for you 

(Some kind of peace of mind) 

There's a part of me still waiting for you 

(I need to find) 

Welcome to my happy ending 

(I need to find) 

Even though it's fun contending 

(Some kind of peace of mind) 

I know 

I know you can't look back, you can never go back 



Welcome to my Californian home 

You can never go back 

Welcome to my Californian home 

I know 

You can never go back 

Welcome to my Californian home 

I know 

You can never go back 

I know I need to find, do you still feel? 



Welcome to my Californian home 

(I need to find) 

Even though I'm no good for you 

(Some kind of peace of mind) 

Deep inside there's a piece of me, there's a piece of me 

Still waiting for you to come home 

Welcome to my Californian home 

(I need to find) 

I know you can never look back, you can never look back again 

(Some kind of peace of mind) 

But tell me ‘cause I want to find out 

Do you still feel alone? 

Oh nooo 

Do you still feel alone? 

Oh nooo
