    Lyrics
    Californian Light Show me your Love Californian Light Yeah Im not feeling to well I should take my time like my mother taught me so well But I'm grieving, cos I'm leaving a feeling so deep alone And I'm sleeping as I walk the streets of where I call home There's many times where I've been Close, but no cigars there I never loved to love, as much as you loved to cry So why does it feel it's all I'm doing all the time Yeah it might be the way that I see it all I tried to be the one, but it's easy now to see you around The vision was always wrong Like the light that made us run In California I can’t afford to, make you mine But baby I still make you cry Show me your Love Californian Light Yeah I hear you're doing pretty well So I try and put you on the shelf But I didn’t get high to feel this strange But I knew it had gone Another cliché is how I’ve been I'm glad that no one really cares I never learnt to love as well as I could tell a lie So now I'm wondering what I'm telling myself now Yeah it might be the way that I see it all I tried to be the one, but it's easy now to see you around The vision was always wrong Like the light that made us run In California I can’t afford to, make you love Yeah it might be the way that I see it all I tried to be the one, but it's easy now I can see you now The vision was always wrong Like the light that made us run In California I can’t afford to, make you mine I can’t, I can’t Baby I can’t see you cry

      I guess time will tell mate. But it’s rare in this day and age for a song to have the
      kind of balance of grove and melody infused with song lyrics that seem to page
      homage to the artists roots. A throwback
      to the classic soul songs of yesteryear mixed with a little of today’s sound. So
      for me, this song has the ingredients of staying power. Though it may never go
      mainstream, I see it being appreciated by people who can understand the aforementioned
      and respect what’s needed to be a classic. But yeah, great story bro...

      Music like this only goes mainstream when it's in a commercial or some shit. Like Tame Impala, they don't make mainstream music at all, but before they were in the bud light commercial, only like indie heads and lsd users knew them, but now everyone loves them. Most of this shit is luck/chance.

    Show me your love
    Californian light
    Show me your love
    Californian light
    Show me your love
    Californian light
    Show me your love
    Californian light
    Yeah I'm not feeling too well
    I should take my time like my mother taught me so well
    But I'm grieving, cos I'm leaving a feeling so deep alone
    And I'm sleeping as I walk the streets of where I call home
    There's many times where I've been
    close, but no cigars there
    I never loved to love, as much as you loved to cry
    So why does it feel it's all I'm doing all the time
    Yeah it might be the way that I see it all
    I tried to be the one, but it's easy now to see you around
    The vision was always wrong like the light that made us run
    In California I can't afford to, make you mine, but baby I still make you cry
    Show me your love
    Californian light
    Show me your love
    Californian light
    Show me your love
    Californian light
    Show me your love
    Californian light
    Yeah I hear you're doing pretty well
    So I try and put you on the shelf
    But I didn't get high to feel this strange
    But I knew it had gone
    Another cliché is how I've been
    I'm glad that no one really cares
    I never learnt to love as well as I could tell a lie
    So now I'm wondering what I'm telling myself now
    Yeah it might be the way that I see it all
    I tried to be the one, but it's easy now to see you around
    The vision was always wrong Like the light that made us run
    In California I can't afford to, make you love
    Yeah it might be the way that I see it all
    I tried to be the one, but it's easy now I can see you now
    The vision was always wrong Like the light that made us run
    In California I can't afford to, make you mine I can't, I can't
    Baby I can't see you cry

    Muestrame tu amor
    Luz californiana
    Sí, no me siento muy bien
    Debería tomarme mi tiempo como mi madre me enseñó tan bien
    Pero estoy afligido, porque me estoy dejando un sentimiento tan profundo solo
    Y estoy durmiendo mientras camino por las calles de donde llamo hogar
    Hay muchas veces donde he estado
    Cerca, pero no hay puros allí
    Nunca me gustó amar, tanto como amar a llorar
    Entonces, ¿por qué siente que es todo lo que estoy haciendo todo el tiempo?
    Sí, podría ser la forma en que lo veo todo
    Traté de ser el único, pero ahora es fácil verte
    La visión siempre estuvo mal
    Como la luz que nos hizo correr
    En California
    No puedo permitirme, hacerte mía
    Pero nena todavía te hago llorar
    Muestrame tu amor
    Luz californiana
    Sí, he oído que te está yendo bastante bien
    Así que trato de ponerte en el estante
    Pero no me llegué a sentir esto extraño
    Pero sabía que se había ido
    Otro cliché es cómo he estado
    Me alegro de que a nadie realmente le importe
    Nunca aprendí a amar tan bien como podría decir una mentira
    Así que ahora me pregunto qué me estoy diciendo a mí mismo ahora
    Sí, podría ser la forma en que lo veo todo
    Traté de ser el único, pero es fácil ahora que puedo verte ahora
    La visión siempre estuvo mal
    Como la luz que nos hizo correr
    En California
    No puedo permitirme, hacerte mía
    No puedo, no puedo
    Bebé, no puedo verte llorar🎶
