Mos Def
(Softly)
This is the place They say
People come from far far far away
To find their dreams
Chasin down these meteors and comets called dreams
(Chasin em Chasin em Chasin em)
In the sky of life
In certain hotspots where these meteors and stars have a tendency to fall
And legend has it (break) that California is one of those spots
I believe that to be true

They sayThis the place where stars are born
They saythis is the place where legends are made
They saythis is the place where angels come play
They saythat this is the place where it all can happen
)for you 4x)
californiaknows how to make dreams seem so sweet
californiaknows how to whisper in your ear and tell you (your a star 5x)
and you keep on staring
pretty girls by the oceanside
softly refuse to shine
