Don't you know baby I'm a leading man
I dig down deep when I say I love you
and I can hold my own with the best of them
I guarantee you, you will never see nothing like this again
California I hope that it wakes you
all the darkness that I couldn't break through
cause I'm going to miss you
I'm gonna miss you
I'm gonna miss you
I'm gonna miss you

don't you know that I did the things I could
I rubbed you back when you were sleeping
and all along baby it was understood
that you were leaving absolutely ever since the very first day that we met
California I hope that it wakes you
all the darkness that I couldn't break through
cause I'm going to miss you
I'm gonna miss you
I'm gonna miss you
I'm gonna miss you
like I miss the ocean when I go to sleep
and it's gonna break my heart

Don't you know baby I'm a leading man
I dig down deep when I say I love you
and I can hold my own with the best of them
I guarantee you, you will never see nothing like this again
California I hope that it wakes you
all the darkness that I couldn't break through
cause I'm going to miss you
I'm gonna miss you
I'm gonna miss you
I'm gonna miss you
I'm gonna miss you
like I miss the ocean when I go to sleep
like I miss the ocean when I go to sleep
and it's gonna break my heart
