California (The Way I Say I Love You)

Does the sun shine on you everyday

Wherever you are

Remember California, the things that we'd say

How special you are

And when you're sad, sad, sad

Does anyone listen?

Do you feel like a diamond?

I hope you feel like a million

Just forget the ones who let you go

Forget the ones too scared to know you

I'll be waiting here

To show you how to come back home

Some things never change

Like the way I say "I love you"

And even when you still need time to grow

If that's the only way you'll know

That some things never change

Like the way I say "I love you"

I hope it's summertime wherever you are

You're under the stars

Don't forget California

She's always there waiting for you

And when it gets bad, bad, bad

When life just gets so heavy

Remember that you're happy

Don't forget to take it easy

And forget the ones who let you go

Forget those ones, yeah they don't know you

I'll be waiting here

To show you how to come back home

Some things never change

Like the way I say "I love you"

And even when you still need time to grow

If that's the only way you'll know

That some things never change

Like the way I say "I love you"

And I watch you come and go

Yeah, these changing tides are all

I've ever really known I've told you

And you run through lives unknown

But one thing you can always count on

I will always love you

I'll spend my lifetime trying to show you

I'll be waiting here

To show you how to come back home

Some things never change

Like the way I say "I love you"

And even when you still need time to grow

If that's the only way you'll know

That some things never change

Like the way I say "I love you"

Right through these unknown moments

Life's tides come and go

Right through these unknown moments

Life's tides come and go
