Billy doesn't love me but he keeps good company   He only comes here when there's no-one else to see   I don't mind if he comes around   I know the winter gets him down   Billy doesn't love me but he keeps good company      We can't afford a ticket but we can always dream   It looks so good you could almost kiss the screen   We've seen the blue, we've seen the smiles   We can get a map and count the miles   It looks so good you could almost kiss the screen      And when we get there, what will we find ?   All the way to California, all the way to California   Why don't you come with me   And I'll get you through January in California      Why don't you come and lie down next to me   When you're feeling like a river lost in the deep blue sea   Under covers you're a child   We'll be there in a little while   Why don't you come and lie down next to me      And when we get there, what will we find ?   Will we find something we left behind ?   All the way to California, all the way to California   Why don't you some with me   And I'll get you through January in California   California
