Q&A
California Lyrics
I met him on the edge of a goodbye
I was standin' there with nowhere left to fly
I was young but never green
A little wiser than my time it seemed
He told me 'bout the places we could hide
Wild and kinda crazy most the time
My heart was hangin' on his every line
I'd memorize his every thought
But the walls he had could never be brought down
And now he's not around
I guess I'm just a face left in the crowd
Oh California, please come back to me
Oh California, you're who I want to be
You live inside of me
A vivid picture plays inside my head
Of things you swore we'd never do again
And he put on that L.A. face and he left me with a bittersweet taste of life
And that's enough to keep me alive
Oh California, please come back to me
Oh California, you're who I want to be
You live inside of me
I know you're lyin' somewhere in the arms of destiny
Your memory, it still lingers here
And I'll never set it free
Oh California, please come back to me
Oh California, you're who I want to be
Live inside of me
You live inside of me
I was standin' there with nowhere left to fly
I was young but never green
A little wiser than my time it seemed
He told me 'bout the places we could hide
Wild and kinda crazy most the time
My heart was hangin' on his every line
I'd memorize his every thought
But the walls he had could never be brought down
And now he's not around
I guess I'm just a face left in the crowd
Oh California, you're who I want to be
You live inside of me
Of things you swore we'd never do again
And he put on that L.A. face and he left me with a bittersweet taste of life
And that's enough to keep me alive
Oh California, you're who I want to be
You live inside of me
Your memory, it still lingers here
And I'll never set it free
Oh California, you're who I want to be
Live inside of me
You live inside of me

Does anybody know what cd this song is on??
Apparently it's on the single mix of Miranda's "Me and Charlie Talking". At least, that's what it says on Spotify.
