Grew up around San Jose until my parents moved to Chicago when I was in high school! 5 years later those bastards went back to CA and my sister is in Hawaii! OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO the humanity! I'm about to break! :lol:

:goofy:

-----

All the leaves are brown

And the sky is gray

I've been for a walk

On a winter's day

I'd be safe and warm

If I was in L.A.

California dreamin'

On such a winter's day

Stopped into a church

I passed along the way

Oh, I got down on my knees

And I pretend to pray

You know the preacher likes the cold

He knows I'm gonna stay

California dreamin'

On such a winter's day

All the leaves are brown

And the sky is gray

I've been for a walk

On a winter's day

If I didnt tell her

I could leave today

California dreamin'

On such a winter's day

(California dreamin')

On such a winter's day

(California dreamin')

On such a winter's day
