California Dreamin'

(album: Soul Spin - 1969)

All the leaves are brown (All the leaves are brown)
And the sky is gray (And the sky is gray)
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 dreamin')
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 light the coal (Preacher light the coal)
He knows I'm gonna stay (Knows I'm gonna stay)
California dreaming (California dreamin')
On such a winter's day

All the leaves are brown (All the leaves are brown)
And the sky is gray (And the sky is gray)
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 dreamin')
On such a winter's day (California dreamin')
On such a winter's day (California dreamin')
On such a winter's day
