Always Come Back

Don't you wanna go where the big trees grow
Kelp forests waving in the sea?
Opening day on San Francisco bay
Sailboats as far as you can see.

May comes along, the days are getting long
Snow still covers the mountains
Sunset goes and the universe grows
So many star you have to stop counting

Chorus:
I'll always come back to California
I'll always come back
I'll keep coming back to California
I'll always come back to you

Poppies in the spring make the mission bells ring
Rivers running freely over stone
A pick-bangs the strings and everybody sings
The wind from the east is gently blowing

Crops are on the ground autumn's coming round
West-bound fifty is where I can be found
Home is in the heart
It's where I got my start
One thing I know whenever I depart

Chorus:
I'll always come back to California
I'll always come back
I'll keep coming back to California
I'll always come back to you
