▼
You should've never shut the door on me
I ain't fuming anymore
But I badly need to blow off steam
Yeah, replace my coffee with some Casamigos neat and then we'll go
Hit the bricks, getting reckless, second trip to liquor store
Gasoline is awful cheap, cigarette burns on my seat
Dirty sneakers on my feet, but my reputation clean, girl
I won't sit here all day waiting for someone new, yeah
I've been running into everyone except for you
No matter how far you go
I'ma still roll enough for two
And even if I run low
I'ma still roll enough for you
(Ooh)
I miss your California sunshine love
(Ooh)
I miss your California sunshine love
Eh, you know when the summer days come and go
It pulls your heart around
And that's how I feel when I wake up
And see you can't be found
I'm still addicted to your loving
When you're in my cloud
So I leave enough for two
And when you're nearby feels like that
Pacific coast blue
Going 99 chasing the sunshine
'Til we break through
Even though I know you're bad
You gimme all the reasons to
To leave enough for you
I won't sit here all day waiting for someone new, yeah
And I've been running into everyone, except for you, ooh
No matter how far you go
I'ma still roll enough for two
And even if I run low
I'ma still roll enough for you
(Ooh)
I miss your California sunshine love
(Ooh)
I miss your California sunshine love
