Lyrics Billy Bragg

Billy Bragg

California Stars

I'd like to rest my heavy head tonight

On a bed of California stars

I'd like to lay my weary bones tonight

On a bed of California stars

I'd love to feel

Your hand touching mine

And tell me why

I must keep working on

Yes I'd give my life

To lay my head tonight on a bed

Of California stars

I'd like to dream

My troubles all away

On a bed of California stars

Jump up from my star bed

Make another day

Underneath my California stars

They hang like grapes

On vines that shine

And warm the lovers' glass

Like friendly wine

So I'd give this world

Just to dream a dream with you

On our bed of California stars

I'd like to rest my heavy head tonight

On a bed of California stars

I'd like to lay my weary bones tonight

On a bed of California stars

I'd love to feel

Your hand touching mine

And tell me why

I must keep working on

Yes I'd give my life

To lay my head tonight on a bed

Of California stars

I'd like to dream

My troubles all away

On a bed of California stars

Jump up from my star bed

Make another day

Underneath my California stars

They hang like grapes

On vines that shine

And warm the lovers' glass

Like friendly wine

So I'd give this world

Just to dream a dream with you

On our bed of California stars

So I'd give this world

Just to dream a dream with you

On our bed of California stars

(Dream a dream with you)
