[Verse 1]
I always thought my favourite colour was red but I guess I look good in blue
You broke my heart for a couple of beers
I'm dead serious, that's true
Well I've been trying to get your attention but you ran away in the middle of the night last week
You told me that I'm not an inspiration
Well how come you are watching me as I leave?

[Pre-Chorus]
You love me the most but baby you love like a ghost, yeah
You love me the most but baby you love like a ghost, yeah

[Chorus]
Hey, you said I'm not an inspiration
Hey, the weather came through
And hey, thanks to some precipitation
California poppies are in bloom

[Verse 2]
I know you wanted to be with me
Yeah, pretty sure I was the one
That pink-orange glow I told you was the sun

[Pre-Chorus]
You love me the most but baby you love like a ghost, yeah
You love me the most but baby you love like a ghost, yeah
[Chorus]
Hey, you said I'm not an inspiration
Hey, the weather came through
And hey, thanks for some precipitation
California poppies are in bloom
Hey, you said I'm not an inspiration
Hey, the weather came through
And hey, thanks to some precipitation
California poppies are in bloom

[Outro]
Hey, California poppies are in bloom
Why, California poppies are in bloom
Hey, California poppies are in bloom
Why, California poppies are in bloom
Hey, California poppies are in bloom
Why, California poppies are in bloom
