California And Me (Feat. Philharmonia Orchestra)

Should have figured that you'd go back to New York
Don't consider me when you run back to her
You don't have to hide it, I know why you went
Said you needed space, I know better than that
Mm-mm

Could have fought for you, but I just let you leave
Hurt too much to consider you didn't love me
The mountains of LA will weep through the night
Driving down Sunset's a terrible sight
Mm-mm

Left me and the ocean for your old flame
Holding back my tears, I couldn't make you stay
Can't quit this
So damn wicked
To leave California and me

I imagine you holding her in your arms
Laughing 'bout how I thought that you were the one
I get so anxious and maybe I'm young
The first sign of trouble and I bite my tongue
Mm-mm

Left me and the ocean for your old flame
Holding back my tears, I couldn't make you stay
Can't quit this
So damn wicked
To leave California and me
