it don't rain in california

she can't do this

anymore

she bought a ticket west and left me staring down the storm

now i'm sittin' here

all alone

in an empty house that used to be a happy home

she said she needed sunshine

she had enough of clouds

i knew it wouldn't take too long

for her to figure out

it don't rain in california

you won't see a single storm cloud in the sky

it's always clear

so there won't be any tears

leave you standin' in the downpour trying to hide

it don't rain in california

like it's raining here tonight

i can't do this

anymore

i hopped a plane and i found my way to the california shore

now we sittin' here

all alone

you knew that i was comin'

you sounded happy on the phone

i knew you needed sunshine

it seems i brought the clouds

the thunder and the lightning seem to follow me around

it don't rain in california

you won't see a single storm cloud in the sky

it's always clear

so there won't be any tears

leave you standin' in the downpour trying to hide

it don't rain in california

like it's raining here tonight

it don't rain in california

like it's raining here tonight
