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
