  • High heels, no clouds
    Sun kissed in cloud
    Can't stop, slow down
    I want you, I want you

    No call, no rain
    One kiss, no pain
    Tell me again
    I want you, I want you

    You don't wanna talk, then you wanna talk
    Then you wanna tell me I'm not and to move along
    Then you wander back in my heart like a bitter song
    And we're never done 'cause I need your love, I need your love

    California, Hallelujah
    You and me are gonna live for today girl
    I'm the luckiest man in the whole world
    Stole my heart but can't afford ya
    All I know is I'm with you today girl
    I'm the luckiest man in the whole world

    Lies you don't keep
    Hurt and I'll bleed
    But you're so sweet
    And I want you, I want you, yeah

    You don't wanna talk, then you wanna talk
    Then you wanna tell me I'm not and to move along
    Then you wander back in my heart like a bitter song
    And we're never done cause I need your love, I need your love

    You don't wanna talk, then you wanna talk
    Then you wanna tell me I'm not and to move along
    Then you wander back in my heart like a bitter song
    And we're never done cause I need your love, I need your love, yeah

    California, Hallelujah
    You and me are gonna live for today girl
    I'm the luckiest man in the whole world
    Stole my heart but can't afford ya
    All I know is I'm with you today girl
    I'm the luckiest man in the whole world

    C'mon, c'mon, I see it in your eyes
    C'mon, c'mon, just love me for one night
    C'mon, c'mon, I see it in your eyes
    C'mon, c'mon, just love me for one night

    California, Hallelujah
