You've felt alone since you were only seven
|
Your mother didn't have a clue what to do
|
You cried each night until you were eleven
|
You prayed that God would bring your daddy back to you
|
|
It got much worse when you were in high school
|
From guy to guy, you wondered why you never felt a thing
|
You wondered if you'd ever find a lover who'd someday
|
Get down on his knees, holding that diamond ring
|
|
This summer's taking me to California
|
But I won't go until you know that what I say is true
|
When everything you've ever loved has left you,
|
I'll be there, yeah, I'll be there for you
|
|
Your senior year, you and your friends went crazy
|
But then you found out who your friends really were
|
You were betrayed by everyone that mattered
|
So you drank until it all became a blur
|
But don't forget about when I first met you
|
Well, I can see a pain too deep to kiss away
|
You thought that I would be another let down
|
So here I am, proving to you that I am here to stay
|
|
This summer's taking me to California
|
But I won't go until you know that what I say is true
|
When everything you've ever loved has left you,
|
I'll be there, yeah, I'll be there for you
|
|
I don't wanna leave you lonely
|
I just wanna be right here
|
Even if you don't believe me,
|
I will try to make it clear
|
|
This summer's taking me to California
|
But I won't go until you know that what I say is true
|
When everything you've ever loved has left you,
|
I'll be there, yeah, I'll be there for...
|
|
This summer's taking me to California
