Owl City West Coast Friendship Lyrics

Are you out there? Where the rainy days begin
To feel rather sad and walls are closing in like the darkness around me
It's so hard to look away when the daylight doesn't ever stay
Above this dull apartment view oh I will surround you
It's quite clear that I'm stuck here so I'll devise a plan and cut out a door in my new living room floor
The porch light is so bright that I will quickly sneak down the dark metal shape of the rusty fire escape

I bought a one-way ticket cuz I knew I'd never see the ground
Unless I was aboard a jet plane and we were going down
When I wiped the tears from my eyes, the warm water took me by surprise
And I woke up beside the ocean and I realized I must be in California

Aloha, my happy west coast friends
Do you feel alive when the breaking waves arrive and rush all around you?
The beach homes in Oceanside are quite well-known by the evening tide
And we can sleep where we reside with redwoods around us
The blue air is up there and could I bring it down, I'd bottle it up and save it for a sweet summer night

I must be in California

Am I awake or is this just a dream?
The New Year is out here and I will make a lovely list of your charms so I'll never feel alone in your arms

I must be in California
I must be in California

(Oh my dear, I can feel you here
So stay right there, I can feel you everywhere)
I must be in California
