You've been waiting to take a ride
So here's a question
Will you jump in or hide away inside?
But trust your heart and feel, a little love

You've lost faith in the summertime
All I know is
A cool long winter this side of town
Warm your heart and feel, a little love

I'll tell you a secret, show you a brand new side to me
Because I found my heart in California on the other side of the sea
And now I remember how to be the person that I wanna be
She's the angel on my shoulder, to me

How can you picture up?
When all you see is down?
It seems like second nature to people all around
So maybe take a leap and step out of your mind
You'll gain a new perspective
You're realising lonely hearts can find a little love

I'll tell you a secret, show you a brand new side to me
Because I found my heart in California on the other side of the sea
And now I remember how to be the person that I wanna be
She's the angel on my shoulder, to me

There's an image that is burned in time
I can see it 'cause it lives inside my mind
I can see her when I close my eyes
I remember

Throwing pennies down the wishing well
Setting fire to the midnight air to kill
All our dreams, 'cause it hurts like hell
I remember

I'll remember 'til the end of time
We made a promise to see the same stars in the sky
We count the memories as the days go by
You'll remember

I'll tell you a secret
Show you a brand new side to me
I found my heart in California
I found my heart in California

I'll tell you a secret, show you a brand new side to me
Because I found my heart in California on the other side of the sea
And now I remember how to be the person that I wanna be
She's the angel on my shoulder
I found my heart in California
I found my heart in California
