She said, she likes
waking up closer
rather than apart
but her hearts in california
but her hearts in california

and she can't wait to wake up
in the city, in the summer
by the ocean, near the coastline
so the breeze can just remind her
that she can get away
when she can't stay awake

i'm gonna need some time
and a reason that i can't find
you're not the only one not listening
i'm gonna need some time
and a reason that I can't find
you're not the only one not
listening

everything about her makes me scream my lungs out (scream my lungs out)
try to be honest cause the night life's running out (scream my lungs out)
where will she go next?
she's a party girl, she's a party girl
and her heart's in california
but the palm trees and streetlights
and boardwalks mean nothing
if she can't get back to her life in the summer
she can get away

i'm gonna need some time
and a reason that i can't find
you're not the only one not listening

what the hell was she thinking
giving up and moving on
everything was perfect you were here
this place is empty
i'm alone
i've got your lip gloss on my mind
the place is empty
i'm a nervous wreck
there's some things i won't understand
there's some things i won't understand
there's some things i won't understand
i'm gonna need some time
and a reason that i can't find
you're not the only
you're not the only
you're not the only
i'm gonna need some time
and a reason that i can't find
you're not the only one
(everything about her makes me scream my lungs out
so scream my lungs out
she's a party girl
yeah she's a party girl
and her hearts in california)
one
one
