Writing you this letter in the heat of late December
Sand inside my shoe, sun in my eyes
The coffee here is better
Days smooth around their edges
A dream, but I confess, it isn't mine

I'm not feeling like myself
I've been going through some hell
Out from underneath her spell
Yeah, I'm lost in California
No one loved me like you did
Deep in waters of regret
Left to get my life on track
But I'm lost in California

The sky's so blue and I am too
I'm counting down the days 'til I see you
I got lost in California

Picture you beside me when I get my morning jog in
I heard it's so much colder way out there
And memories wash over me as I lie under the palm trees
Sitting by your fireplace just this time last year, oh

I'm not feeling like myself
I've been going through some hell
Here my closest friends can't tell
That I'm lost in California
No one loved me like you did
Deep in waters of regret
Baby, it's an SOS
'Cause I'm lost in California

The sky's so blue (so blue) and I am too
I'm counting down the days 'til I see you
I got lost in California

California
Tried falling for you
The more I know you
The less I want to
California
Tried falling for you
The more I know you
The less I want you

I'm not feeling like myself
I've been going through some hell
Here my closest friends can't tell
That I'm lost in California
No one loved me like you did
Deep in waters of regret
Baby, it's an SOS
'Cause I'm lost in California
