California Sunshine, Tennessee Rain

Verse

Sunrise hits the palm trees, another day in L.A.

Hollywood lights are calling, but my heart's a world away

Got my yoga mat, my iced latte, designer shades so bright

But I'm scrolling through your photos, beneath the pale moonlight

You're in a worn-out truck, sun-kissed, with that southern drawl

Makes me wanna trade these boulevards for a dirt road standin' tall.

Chorus

She's California sunshine, he's Tennessee rain

Two different worlds colliding, feelin' the same sweet pain

One's got the ocean breeze, one's got the Grand Ole Opry sound

But they're dreaming 'bout each other, on opposite sides of town

Yeah, a Nashville boy and an L.A. girl, a story in the making

Across the miles, their hearts are beating, and they're both just waiting.

Verse

Truck tires hummin' slow on the I-40 lane

Got my guitar in the back, thinkin' 'bout your name

Broadway lights are shinin', but they ain't got your glow

Steel guitar is cryin' out a tune I didn't know

Sweet tea in my hand, boots kicked up on the dash

Wish you were here to see this sunset, in a golden, dusty flash.

Chorus

She's California sunshine, he's Tennessee rain

Two different worlds colliding, feelin' the same sweet pain

One's got the ocean breeze, one's got the Grand Ole Opry sound

But they're dreaming 'bout each other, on opposite sides of town

Yeah, a Nashville boy and an L.A. girl, a story in the making

Across the miles, their hearts are beating, and they're both just waiting.

Bridge

I see you in the CMA stars, you see me on the Venice Beach sand

How can forever feel so close, when you're in another land?

Might be some highway miles, but my heart knows where it's bound

Gonna trade these honky tonks for a place where you're around.

Chorus

She's California sunshine, he's Tennessee rain

Two different worlds colliding, feelin' the same sweet pain

One's got the ocean breeze, one's got the Grand Ole Opry sound

But they're dreaming 'bout each other, on opposite sides of town

Yeah, a Nashville boy and an L.A. girl, a story in the making

Across the miles, their hearts are beating, and they're both just waiting.

Outro

Yeah, just waiting for that day...

When the sunshine meets the rain...

In Nashville... or L.A...

You and me... yeah...

Baby, you and me...
