California and Me

Should've 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, mmm Could've 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, mmm 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, mmm 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 --- California and Me - Laufey and Philharmonia Orchestra
