she was in california, i was in boston massachusets. she said "the sky looks incredible cuz you can only see the brightest stars through the clouds tonight". i wrote that down on a sticky pad and later developed a song around it.

“The sky is so incredible right now,
You can only see the brightest stars,” she says.
“And few and far between are the clouds.
They are lit up by the moon and Mars,” she says.

“And I’m going crazy just staring at it all”
She says to me.
The California sky sounds so much better than city lights tonight…
Baby.

“I wish that you could be here right now
To see the things that I have seen
Cuz I’ve seen skies of blue, sands of time,
Songs that rhyme and grass of green.

“And I’m going crazy just staring at it all”
She says to me.
The California sky sounds so much better than city lights tonight…
Baby.

It’s not that I don’t love,
Living up above,
The sirens that roam this place.
Try to understand,
This isn’t what I’ve planned,
Never thought to picture… a warmer space.

“And I’m going crazy just staring at it all”
She says to me.
The California sky sounds so much better than city lights tonight…
Baby.
