California Lullabye Lyrics by Josh Woodward

The Beautiful Machine

2013

The skies are cold and gray
The storm is on its way
The flat horizon, leafless trees
There's nothing far as you can see, out here
You shiver like a waif
Your snow boot soles are chafed
You left your heart in paradise
You left it all to roll the dice with me
And I will shake away the cloudy skies
With a California lullabye
And when you're frozen with desire
We'll put our toes up to the fire
And I will sing your cares away
The sand between my toes
Your hands beneath my clothes
The memories of golden days
When first we met, and parted ways so soon
But distance lost its fight
When you laid down at night
Without a map, you chose your heart
Now we are one, but you're still far from home
So let me shake away the cloudy skies
With a California lullabye
And when you're frozen with desire
We'll put our toes up to the fire
And I will sing your cares away
And when you're frozen with desire
We'll put our toes up to the fire
And I will sing your cares away
I know it feels, like spinning wheels
Are digging you much deeper in the snow
Don't worry, ‘cause the winter thaws
And you will watch the river start to flow
And in that place, the empty space, will fill you in a warm embrace
And I will hold you tight until it's home
I will shake away the cloudy skies
With a California lullabye
And when you're frozen with desire
We'll put our toes up to the fire
And I will sing your cares away
Now let me take you back to paradise
All you gotta do is close your eyes
And when you're frozen with desire
We'll put our toes up to the fire
And I will sing your cares away
