Graceman, Anna - California Lyrics






Today there ain't no sun in California
And that's because there ain't no you
I used to love the sky in California
But now it only makes me blue

It's all that I can do to try to keep you off my mind
Memories start to wander on this River Road I drive
It's sad but true
It's all I can do
I used to love the colors Autumn painted in the trees
And I admire how they seemed to change so easily
From old to new
Wish I could too

Today there ain't no sun in California
And that's because there ain't no you
I used to love the sky in California
But now it only makes me blue

Walking to the corner store and standing where we stood
Find I'm talking to myself when I wish I could
Just talk to you
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Today there ain't no sun in California
And that's because there ain't no you
I used to love the sky in California
But now it only makes me...

Blue, why you gotta make me so blue? Yeah
Blue, why you gotta make me so blue? Yeah

But I still love the drive to California
And doing things we used to do
And I still smile when I'm in California
Because it makes me think of you
It makes me think of you

  32. S.... F....

    The lyrics are amazing, Anna!!

  33. s.... ....

    Your ear for melody keeps getting more effective. The expression is present, execution superb. Your arrangements and production improve with each opus. I'm so glad I "found" you years ago. I continue to tell others about you, of that you can be sure. If you get a chance, watch "The Frame." It's an independent film with brilliant allegory, and among the important ideas presented, is the concept of people doing what they are meant to do. "California"? I love it more with each hearing. :)

  34. S.... T....

    Nice video, nice song. Have to fit it on a playlist.

  35. S.... F....

    Sweet, Anna!!😉👏🏻

    Compliments and thanks to Jake Etheridge, Anna's co-writer of "California." I still much admire songs Anna wrote as a child & teenager, like "Unexpected," "Words," "Dust," "Already Falling," "Next Generation," ..her genius is putting-in-words thoughts and feelings we all experience in our own lives, and yet very-personal to herself, simple-bu-profound honesty, yet touchingly, with her own finesse (and not that much has been said about her melodious piano-playing!) So much else to be said but so glad Anna Graceman ever came along, just when we needed her.

  43. M.... C....

    Anna you are the gift that keeps on giving. Well done! Beautiful song!

  44. g.... ....

    You just don't stop amazing me!

    Auto tune

    I heard her live. This girl doesn't need auto tune, I can tell you that. But the verse melody is borrowed from another classic song: https://youtu.be/osVaF4t-zFc Not a problem for me, just noticed.

    Anna. If you can, make sure to fix your Instagram link in the description. It's not working at the moment. YouTube shortened it so that it's missing the last "n" in your name.

  80. L.... O....

    😍👍👍

  81. B.... I....

    This is so good 💙 I really like the emotion and story of this you convey through the lyrics and tune ☺

  82. h.... ....

    Anna, I am so sorry for your loss. :(
    I was so happy to have a song with my state named. But after hearing the backstory to this song, I feel like a heel.
    Anyhow, with that known, I finally felt the spirit with which you wrote this. I like this lyric: _"I used to love the colors Autumn painted in the trees"_. It shows how the nice, little things we appreciate can drastically change when our perspective changes due to death of a loved one.
    Again, I am sorry for your loss. I'm glad you were able to express it through your music. I hope you are getting better day by day, month by month, year by year.

    I'm sorry. I don't know the details. But the song was written due to her losing a loved one.

    So sad ... but such a beautiful song. It's from the heart .. that is how Anna writes is from the heart. I love that about her. I'm living in California too, and grew up right near a River Road! I thought it looked familiar. Lots of grapes on one side and oak trees on the other.
