California Driftin'

[Musical introduction] [Piano, acoustic guitar, electric guitar, bass guitar, drums] [Verse 1] The fog rolls in, a misty gray, Scattered across the golden hills, A place where sunlight used to play Settles into a winter’s chill [Musical interlude] [Verse 2] The ocean rumbles on all night A weary sigh, a restless sound It rages on with all its might To claim the land it once drowned [Chorus] California driftin' (into the sea), On such a winter’s day, A lost love so dear to me Memories soon fade away The waves will rise and fall And wash away the shore Leaving behind the silence I just can’t bear anymore [Musical interlude] [Verse 3] Redwoods stand, the watchers of old Without even a mumble As they watch the story unfold The earth gives way and crumbles [Chorus] California driftin' (into the sea), On such a winter’s day, A lost love so dear to me Memories soon fade away The waves will rise and fall And wash away the shore Leaving behind the silence I just can’t bear anymore [Bridge] The fault lines run so deep below, A love so strong, who could have known The sands runs down, the tragic flow, As memories vanish into the glow [Guitar solo] [Chorus] California driftin' (into the sea), On such a winter’s day, A lost love so dear to me Memories soon fade away The waves will rise and fall And wash away the shore Leaving behind the silence I just can’t bear anymore [Musical interlude] [Refain] California driftin' (into the sea) On such a winter’s day Californian driftin' (into the sea) On such a winter’s day [Improvised musical outro] [Music stops.]
