F
Under the TV lights
A#
You fell asleep again
F                                  C
Don't know I'm writing this song about you
F
There's a picture of a Hollywood sign
A#
Reflecting off your skin
F                                    C
I don't want to live another day without you

You woke up and said "Baby I
Had one of those dreams again"
The rain came down and I lost you
In the wind
You said something about, "Don't leave"
Before you fell back asleep
Before I could sing my song back to ya

     A#                      F                C
But you could find yourself lost out in this world
    A#                 F                C
And I'd find a way to get back to your side

Chorus:
                   A#                     C
No mountain's too high, no stone is too small
                                Dm
I'll build a bridge through the fire
                  C
For you I would crawl
                      F    Gm  F  A#
From New York to California

I can hear you softly breathe
Oh, what you do to me
Baby, I could climb down into your dreams
Build a ladder down through the clouds
Where the storm is raging now, I
Don't want to sing another song without ya

If you, find yourself lost out in this world
Then I, find a way to get back to your side

Chorus

Singing
A#
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
F
Oh, it's not too far
A#
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
F
Oh, to where you are
A#
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
F
Oh, it's not too far
A#                    C
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la

'Cause you, could find yourself lost out
in this world
And I, find a way to get back to your side

If you, find yourself lost out in this world
Then I, find a way to get back to your side

Chorus

To California
To California
