[Verse 1]
I wanna sit seaside with your hands in mine
Wanna count the stars when the tide is high
I wanna watch your face fall into mine
Wanna feel the sand beneath my feet
On an empty beach just you and me
This time you're all mine

[Chorus]
I wanna live in California
I wanna be with ya'
And I want you to be the reason for the ring on my ring finger
I wanna live in California
I wanna be with ya'
And I want you to be the reason for the ring on my ring finger
California

[Verse 2]
Gonna run my fingers through your hair
Don't say a word babe, please just stare
I would die to see your eyes
Die to see your eyes
Yeah, you got me good in those short shorts
So I must admit you look real fine to me
But there's more to you than this

[Chorus]
I wanna live in California (oh-oh)
I wanna be with ya' (yeah)
And I want you to be the reason for the ring on my ring finger
I wanna live in California (oh-oh)
I wanna be with ya' (yeah)
And I want you to be the reason for the ring on my ring finger

[Bridge]
I wanna live in California, oh oh oh
Na-na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na, yeah yeah

[Chorus]
I wanna live in California
I wanna be with ya'
And I want you to be the reason for the ring on my ring finger
I wanna live in California, yeah, ooh, mmm
I wanna be with ya', oh na na yeah
I want you to be the reason for the ring on my ring finger
California
