I don't recognize your face tonight The neon glaze covering your eyes I think about the place it all began (I think about the place it all began) When we walked on California sand, oh Take me to the sunshine Feeling the rays of the west coast sky Back to where it all began When we walked on California sand When we walked on California sand It's hard to hear you speak in crowded rooms (I feel like a monkey trapped in a suit) And you don't like the smell of cheap perfume (I could use a little oxygen too) Said only you and me here understand (We need a new start, we need a new plan) 'Cause we walk on California sand (Come on baby, can we go back) Take me to the sunshine Feeling the rays of the west coast sky Back to where it all began When we walked on California sand I don't recognize myself tonight This isn't me in a suit and tie Darling, won't you please come take my hand Follow me to California sand Take me to the sunshine Feeling the rays of the west coast sky Back to where it all began When we walked on California sand Yeah take me to the sunshine I wanna be one with the oceanside Back to where it all began When we walked on California sand Do you remember when we used to walk on the sand No shoes on our feet where it all began Can we go back like that Baby, can we go back right there
