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 dreaming on such a winter's day
I stopped into a church
I passed along the way
Well, I got down on my knees
And I began to pray
You know the preacher light the coal
He knows I'm gonna stay
California dreaming 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 him I could leave today
California dreaming on such a winter's day
On such a winter's day
On such a winter's day
