Sometimes I sit and wonder if you'll be coming back There's an empty feel There's something that I lack inside The weather's getting colder and I'm beside myself Beside myself I'm holding on to hope Forever's not a lie There's a place where all the good souls go A place where love survives And if you have had good fortune Struck gold twice If you make it there Did you feel the rain as it started to fall? Did you feel this pain 'cause I can't feel at all? Maybe this time I'm the one who was wrong 'Cause I never change No, I never move on I pray that you can hear me I hope it isn't long before you find your way back home Fall back into my arms It's that beautiful connection Everything that makes you feel safe Did you the feel the light as it started to shine? Right through your window and into my eyes Maybe this time you're the one who was right You're making me smile and you're changing my life Don't get me wrong, I still sing to the stars I fly like a bird through the sound of the songs Too many times you've slipped right through my hands Now California is where this bird lands The line of horizon, it stretches for miles As your toes touch the water, you shoot me a smile It's too cold and I laughed We stood there a while, dug our toes in the sand Did you know it's the first time The first time in my life That I can now say I'm finally happier I'm happier Did you the feel the light as it started to shine? Right through your window and into my eyes I know now this time you're the one who was right You're making me smile and you're changing my life Don't get me wrong, I still sing to the stars I fly like a bird through the sound of the songs Too many times you've slipped right through my hands So now California is where this bird lands
