Here In California - Kate Wolf
When I was young my mama told me
She said"Child take your time
Don't fall in love too quickly
Before you know your mind"
She held me 'round the shoulders
In a voice so soft and kind
She said"Love can make you happy
And love can rob you blind"
Here in California
The fruit hangs heavy on the vine
There's no gold I thought I'd warn ya
And the hills turn brown in the summertime
Well I may learn to love you
But I can't say when
This morning we were strangers
And tonight we're only friends
But I'll take my time to know you
I'll take my time to see
There's nothing that I won't show you
If you take your time with me
Here in California
The fruit hangs heavy on the vine
There's no gold I thought I'd warn ya
And the hills turn brown in the summertime
It's an old familiar story
An old familiar rhyme
To everything there is a season
To every purpose there's a time
A time to love and come together
A time we look longs for a name
A time for questions we can't answer
But we ask them just the same
Here in California
The fruit hangs heavy on the vine
There's no gold I thought I'd warn ya
And the hills turn brown in the summertime
There's no gold I thought I'd warn ya
And the hills turn brown in the summertime
