Drifting Away to Cali

I once closed my eyes in the peak of then night
My being drifted away like a boat on the sea
All of a sudden the lights became bright
My eyes soon became filled with glee

I stepped out onto the boulevard of Hollywood
Where all the past and present stars greeted me
This is the place I want to call my neighborhood
This is where I want my home to be

As the early hours of the morning came
I left the sunshine and stars in their place
I tuned around and waved goodbye to the fame
As I woke up at a very slow pace
