DO YOU WANNA GO TO CALIFORNIA? [Intro – Electric Guitar / Desert Highway] Oh-oh… The night is calling… California… [Verse 1] I was driving through the desert, With the moon above my head, Radio was whispering Words I’d never said. Then I saw the neon shining Like a fire in the sky, And a woman by the roadside Caught my wandering eye. She said, “Come a little closer, There’s a place you need to see, Leave your troubles on the highway, You can lose them here with me.” I could feel the night was changing, Like a storm behind the sun, And I knew before I followed That the night had just begun. [Pre-Chorus] There’s a road with no direction, There’s a door without a key, And a voice inside the darkness Saying, “Come and follow me…” [Chorus] Do you wanna go to California? Do you wanna chase the golden light? Do you wanna go to California? Where the dreams come alive at night. Do you wanna go to California? Leave the past somewhere behind. Do you wanna go to California? Maybe you’ll lose yourself to find… [Verse 2] Palm trees dancing in the headlights, Silver shadows on the road, Every mile became a secret, Every sign became a code. There were strangers in the doorway, There was music in the air, Everybody looked so happy, But nobody seemed to care. I was drinking in the midnight, Watching city lights below, And the woman kept on smiling, “Tell me, baby, where will you go?” I said, “Maybe I should leave now,” She just laughed and shook her head, “Some roads take you where you’re going, Some roads take you where you’re led.” [Pre-Chorus] There’s a road with no direction, There’s a door without a key, And a voice inside the darkness Saying, “Come and follow me…” [Chorus] Do you wanna go to California? Do you wanna chase the golden light? Do you wanna go to California? Where the dreams come alive at night. Do you wanna go to California? Leave the past somewhere behind. Do you wanna go to California? Maybe you’ll lose yourself to find… [Guitar Solo] Oh-oh… California… Yeah… California… [Bridge – Slow / Dramatic] Maybe paradise is dangerous, Maybe heaven hides a lie, Maybe every dream we’re chasing Has a price we never see in time. But the road is still before me, And the morning’s far away, So I turn the wheel toward the sunrise And I hear that voice again… [Final Chorus – Big Rock] Do you wanna go to California? Do you wanna chase the golden light? Do you wanna go to California? Where the dreams come alive at night. Do you wanna go to California? If you’re ready, take my hand. Do you wanna go to California? Come on, baby… Let’s leave this town tonight! [Outro] California… California… Do you wanna go? Do you wanna go? Do you wanna go to California?
