Here on the first day, lying there in your arms.
Taking in slow breaths knowing it won't be long,
til I find it's too good to be true.
I knew I wasn't good enough for you.

Bring me back to the first words coming out your mouth,
bring me back to the laughter and things we'd talk about,
bring me back to the stars in the sky, sitting next to you,
Your a California dream that won't come true.

Sitting in the backseat, looking in your eyes, so dark.
When you kissed my lips, could've sworn I felt a spark.
Dreamed of this kind of boy so long,
but i knew my imagination..

Would bring me back to the first words, coming out your mouth,
bring me back to the laughter and things we'd talk about,
bring me back to the stars in the sky, sitting next to you.
You're a California dream that won't come true.

still have the messages starting from the very first day,
I knew that it would happen, but I hoped you wouldn't say,
I was so mesmerized by your eyes,
you had me hypnotized.

Bring me back to the first words coming out your mouth,
bring me back to the laughter and things we'd talk about,
bring me back to the stars in the sky, sitting next to you,
Your a California dream that won't come true.
California dream I want.
California dream I need.
You're a California dream that won't come true.

Here on the first day, lying there in your arms.
taking in slow breaths, knowing that is right where we belong.
