California Lyrics

I'm independent now

So I should know

How to describe this feeling

That doesn't leave me

I used to hate it

When they called me

And meant the two of us together

Like we were unseparable

All the make-up that you had

Touched my face a billion times

And the food I used to bring to school

Was always yours and mine

And the cousins that you had

Were all our friends

Even though I didn't like them

We laughed at the same people

And liked the same boys

Invented our own dances

Covered Pentatonix songs

And we loved to share our future

But now our past is all we share

But best friend please don't tell me

You didn't want to move in with me to California

It was the only wish we had

To move in and always sing and have a band

Please don't tell me

You didn't want to move in with me to California

Where all the dreams come true

But now mine doesn't have you

It shouldn't matter now

All the promises

But they seem so real

A never-ending film

And it shouldn't hurt so bad

When I saw it coming

I knew I lost you

When another called you

Her best friend

And I didn't have anything to say back

I was like"Shut up, Irin!"

That's a never-ending film

You'll find some new people

And they'll stay for ten years

You'll call 'em forever

But that doesn't exist

Have fun, let 'em in

And make some memories

'Cause a true friendship

Is the most beautiful thing

Even though I'm crying now

Trust me, it doesn't mean

That a was unhappy

Or I regret a thing

It is just a tear

'Cause, best friend, all I need to know is

Oh best friend please don't tell me

You didn't want to move in with me to California

Tell me you wanted it back then

When we were actually best friends

Please don't tell me

You didn't want to move in with me to California

It would ruin my past

The brightest thing I have

Because of you

Please don't tell me

You didn't want to move in with me to California

'Cause it remained my dream

To always sing

I know we change and we go

With new people build a home

And I also know

You didn't mean to go

Like I didn't mean to go

That's how life goes
