City And Colour - The Golden State lyrics

Why's everyone still singing about California? Haven't we heard enough about the Golden State? I guess if you like sandy beaches and blue ocean water There's something about it, to which I cannot relate I need to see the leaves change and the snowflakes falling I need to hear the call, the wind whistling through the winter pines [Chorus] Why's everyone still singing about California? Haven't we heard enough about the Golden State? And people still follow them dreams to sweet California And from time to time I pa** on by, but I will never stay Sure there are beautiful people, in the city of lost angels They're living like they're kings and queens, from some royal age But fortune and fame won't save you, when California Is wiped out by the ring of fire or a great earthquake [Chorus] No, I will never stay Never stay Never stay
