California Dreaming

The Mamas and the Papas
California Dreaming

All the leaves are brown
		All the leaves are brown
And the sky is grey
		And the sky is grey
I've been for a walk
		I've been for a walk
On a winter's day
		On a winter's day
I'd be safe and warm
		I'd be safe and warm
If I was in L.A.
		If I was in L.A.
California dreaming
		California dreaming
On such a winter's day

Stopped into a church
I passed along the way
Well, I got down on my knees
		Got down on my knees
And I pretend to pray
		I pretend to pray
You know the preacher likes the cold
		Preacher likes the cold
He knows I'm gonna stay
		Knows I'm gonna stay
California dreaming
		California dreaming
On such a winter's day

All the leaves are brown
		All the leaves are brown
And the sky is grey
		And the sky is grey
I've been for a walk
		I've been for a walk
On a winter's day
		On a winter's day
If I didn't tell her
		If I didn't tell her
I could leave today
		I could leave today
California dreaming
		California dreaming
On such a winter's day
		California dreaming
On such a winter's day
		California dreaming
On such a winter's day
