lyrics

MORE THAN CALIFORNIA

Say good-bye to LA for me
I don’t have the time to care
‘Cause I know she’s down in Austin
Who knows how long she’ll be there

Chorus
I need her more than California
Needs the bright lights of LA
She’s the dream I should be chasing
I can’t let her get away
I need her more than California
Ever needed me to stay

Had to try my luck out west
Had to see how far I could go
The further I got from her and Texas
The closer I got to coming home

I said I’d be there by tomorrow
If you’d give us one more shot
I may not have much to offer
But I’ll give you all I’ve got

Say good-bye to LA for me
I don’t have the time to care
