When the sun sets beneath the mountain tops And the water begins to rise I try to contain my excitement But the force of the night conquers my surprise Kids on the street corner peddlin' maps On how to meet the stars Prostitute turns, my body burns She'll cure your loneliness for half an hour Cars breeze dow-own the avenue Rock 'n' roll's suspended in mid air A girl cha-anting nonsense takes my money Puts a flower in my hair Billboards grin and my head spins This may be heaven but it's not my home All the sunshine and beautiful people Make me feel more and more alone Southern California, where your dreams almost come true Southern California, where everyone's a star except for you Southern California, like a beautiful girl you cannot touch Everyone lives forever here, those were my thoughts And I don't wanna be a part of that all American dream But still I keep on comin' back, I can't let it get the best of me (The best of me, best of me) Lord give me the strength to see myself clearly, see myself clearly Oh-hoh-hoh-hoh, and time flies by like a meteor in the sky-y And I'm wondering is it just me Everything seems so perfect like some commercial on TV (on TV, TV, TV) Lord give us the strength to show real feelings, real feelings In Southern California, where your dreams almost come true In Southern California, where everyone's a star except for you Southern California, like a beautiful girl you cannot touch Everyone lives forever here, everyone lives forever here Everyone lives forever here, everyone lives forever here Everyone lives forever here, everyone lives forever here Everyone lives forever here
