American Aquarium - California lyrics

Two thousand
Seven hundred ninety-four miles from
Here to LA
Two hundred forty-three gallons of gas
Stretched over two days
Two suitcases of clothes, a guitar
And some shoes for ballet
Two lovers who saw a normal life
And drove the other way

California, California
We've waited on you, please
Don't let us down california, California
We're bankin' on you this time around

Two thirty in the morning and he's
Counting the tips in the jar
Two stings of the six he's gotta
Fix on his trusty guitar
Two blocks down the street she's there to
Meet him and she brought the car
Too bad that she's the only on who
Knows that he's a rock star

California, California
We've waited on you, please
Don't let us down california, California
We're bankin' on you this time around

Two auditions down, one to go
Then she's headed to work
To a diner where she wait's for her
Big break off Twenty-Second and Third
Today might be the day she gets
The news that she's never heard
And can finally go home to a man
That's gonna be proud of her

California, California
We've waited on you, please
Don't let us down california, California
We're bankin' on you this time around

Two thousand
Seven hundred ninety-four miles from
Here to LA two lovers who saw a normal life
And drove the other way
