[Verse] Sunset paints the sky in gold Palm trees waving tales untold Winding roads that never end California dreams my friend [Verse 2] Surfers ride the waves so high Mountains kiss the endless sky Hollywood a sparkling light Stars awaken in the night [Chorus] California dreaming wild and free Every heartbeat in sync with the sea Feel the magic in the air Golden moments everywhere [Verse 3] Desert winds that softly hum Echoes where the wild things run Big Sur cliffs that touch the blue Morning glories kissed by dew [Chorus] California dreaming wild and free Every heartbeat in sync with the sea Feel the magic in the air Golden moments everywhere [Bridge] From the valleys to the coast It’s this place I love the most Endless summer warm embrace California sets the pace
