[Verse] Golden sun sets in the sky so high Waves crash with a punch dry and fly Palm trees swaying with the breeze California nights put my heart at ease [Verse 2] Cruising down the boulevard no sound Neon lights without a crowd Stars above seem within reach California dreams beyond the beach [Chorus] Underneath the moon so bright Everything feels just right California nights take me away Where worries die and we shall stay [Verse 3] City lights reflect on ocean tides Mountains watch from their silent sides Endless highways stretch with pride California nights free as the ride [Bridge] Whispers of the wind sighed through Stories old and stories new Every moment feels brand new California nights just me and you [Verse 4] Sunrise paints a brand-new page Morning dew sets the stage Every dawn a chance to play California nights never fade away
