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
Mm mm mm mm
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
Mm mm mm mm
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 when I bite my tongue
Mm mm mm mm
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
