It Ain't California

The world's standin' still on the 405
The vampires ain't out on Mullholand Drive
Heart breaker smiles everywhere you turn
Some learn to fly, some crash and burn

And the Sun still shines all the time
And the sky's still blue
And the stars shine bright every night
Like they used to
Oh, but it ain't California
No, it ain't California
No, it ain't California without you

American girls with those golden tans
Running down their dreams buried in the sand
Still bettin' it all on that Hollywood sign
Hell, even the losers get lucky sometimes

And the Sun still shines all the time
And the sky's still blue
And the stars shine bright every night
Like they used to
Oh but it ain't California
It ain't California
No, it ain't California without you

Since you've been gone the music keeps on goin'
Would've followed you to the great wide open
Me and Mary Jane, yeah we shed some tears
We're both free fallin' without you here

And the Sun still shines all the time
And the sky's still blue
And the stars shine bright every night
Like they used to
Oh but it ain't California
It ain't California
No, it ain't California without you

(The stars shine bright every night, just like they used to)
It ain't California
No, it ain't California
No, it ain't California without you
(The stars shine bright every night, just like they used to)
It ain't California
No, it ain't California
No, it ain't California without you
