all the leaves are brown and the sky is gray
i've been for a walk on a winter's day
i'd be safe and warm if I was in L.A.
california dreamin' on such a winter's day
stopped into a church
I passed along the way
well I got down on my knees
and I pretend to pray
you know the preacher liked the cold
he knows I'm gonna stay
california dreamin' on such a winter's day
all the leaves are brown and the sky is gray
i've been for a walk on a winter's day
if I didn't tell her I could leave today
california dreamin' on such a winter's day
