[Verse 1]
In California, we keep the fire burning
We're on the edge, so you keep watching and learning
Everything here is new every day (every day)
In California, everyone else is pretty
You think you get it, but it changes from city to city
At least the sun shines every day (every day)

[Chorus]
I'm sending this out to California
It might take a day, it might take my life
I'm sending this out to California
We're not so far away, we're not so far away
We'rе not so far away, hey hey

[Verse 2]
Out on the freeway, that's whеre we get together
It's what we talk about instead of the weather
Because the sun shines every day (every day)
In California, everyone else is coming
Your way, 'cause they like the way your drummer is drumming
Everything here is new every day (every day)

[Chorus]
I'm sending this out to California
It might take a day, it might take my life
I'm sending this out to California
We're not so far away, we're not so far away
We're not so far away, hey hey
[Interlude]

[Chorus/Outro]
I'm sending this out to California
It might take a day, it might take my life
I'm sending this out to California
We're not so far away, we're not so far away
We're not so far away
I'm sending this out to California
It might take a day, it might take my life
I'm sending this out to California
We're not so far away, we're not so far away
We're not so far away, hey hey
[Fade]
