There's a light in California
just behind the River Jordan
Angels of mercy keep
watch over mortal feet
She waits for me
All the apple trees are golden
where the shoreline meets the ocean
Far from the birds of prey
Far from our yesterdays
She waits for me
She waits for me
And the land we married
was too hard to carry
Seven years, we borrowed
seven years of sorrow
And I'm always waiting
but the sky keeps taking
California, save me!
California calls me home
There's a light in California
There's a light in California
Far from the fields of grey
we'll find a holiday
She waits for me
She waits for me
