Butch Walker - So At Last Lyrics

So at last Southern California
Sun sets like a long goodbye
I've been dreaming about it for days
But I don't ask why

I can feel it in my bones
It's a careless season, started just the other day
What'd you expect
That just for no reason I packed it in and drove away
Now I don't mean to pin this one on you, darlin'
It's time I found something good
When it comes right down
You're just one of many people that never really understood

So at last Southern California
Sun sets like a long goodbye
I've been dreaming about it for days
but I don't ask why

As I drove into a city painted on the desert
With everything 10 miles high
Hard to believe that nobody will see what I see
Through my bloodshot eyes
Now I don't mean to sound so young and naive
But I think we've found something good,
And now I can feel me leaving who I used to be
As we're driving into Hollywood

So at last Southern California
Sun sets like a long goodbye
I've been dreaming about it for days
But I don't ask why
So at last Southern California
Sun sets enough to get by
I've been dreaming about it for days
And now I know why

I can feel it in my bones
I'm a careless season, it started when I woke today
And now that I'm here
It's all so very clear
The reason that I drove away
Now I don't mean to call so early now, darlin'
But the waves just feel so good
And I'll always come around
And watch the sun go down
Just like you knew I would

So at last southern California
Sun sets like a long goodbye
I've been dreaming about it for days
But I don't ask why
So at last Southern California
Sun sets enough to get by
I've been dreaming about it for days
And now I know why
