I want you to move to California for yourself,
I want you to find whatever your heart needs,
I want you to move to California for yourself, but not for me.

I want you to go out there and find somebody else,
I want him to treat you like I know he should,
I want you to find somebody new for yourself, if not for me.

All of the feelings that I know you never felt,
And all of the simple words you never said,
I want you to keep them like a secret to yourself, they're not for me.

I want you to wander silent past my outstretched arms,
I want you to hide yourself from all I see,
And though my heart will fight until its dying breath, you're not for me.

I want you to move to California for yourself,
I want you to find whatever your heart needs,
I want you to move to California for yourself, but not for me.
