Lyrics by Ryusei Miyakodori Composed by Yoichi Takizawa (1984) [Verse 1] You rolled up in that car Like a postcard came alive Hair in the ocean air And that grin was a strike I was gone in a blink When you leaned on the hood Said you were headed west I said, “I’m headed too” [Pre-Chorus] Sun on your shoulders Salt on your jeans You looked at me Like you knew what I mean [Chorus] That cool girl, California You spin me out, you spin me out That cool girl, California Head over heels right now Ice cream melt, I can’t ignore ya I’m falling hard, falling hard That cool girl, California You got my heart in the car [Verse 2] We took the long way down Past the cracked boardwalk signs You laughed with your feet up Out the passenger side I bought two waffle cones You stole the cherry red Said love is a dare So I jumped in again [Pre-Chorus] Sun on your shoulders Salt on your skin Say my name once And I’m back in it [Chorus] That cool girl, California You spin me out, you spin me out That cool girl, California Head over heels right now Ice cream melt, I can’t ignore ya I’m falling hard, falling hard That cool girl, California You got my heart in the car [Bridge] If you go, take me with you Past the dunes and the tide I don’t need much, just your hand And a little more time [Chorus] That cool girl, California You spin me out, you spin me out That cool girl, California Head over heels right now Ice cream melt, I can’t ignore ya I’m falling hard, falling hard That cool girl, California You got my heart in the car
