[Chorus]
All the leaves are brown, and the sky is gray
I went for a walk on such a winter's day
I'd be safe and warm if I was in L.A
California dreamin' on such a winter's day

[Verse 1]
I stopped in to a church, I passed along the way
Got down on my knees and I pretend to pray
You know the preacher likes the cold, he knows that I'm gonna stay
California dreamin' on such a winter's day

[Chorus]
All the leaves are brown, and the sky is gray
I went for a walk on such a winter's day
I'd be safe and warm if I was in L.A
California dreamin' on such a winter's day
