Standard (EADGBE)
Intro
Every night a different story
California dreams
Grew up thinking there was somewhere else that you should be
Cities just werent big enough
The towns had lost their way
Told me you would bide your time til you could slip away
When you left I drove you to the station
Said youd come back when the hunger fades away
(CHORUS)
Candice Ive been dreaming
And in my mind Im watching over you just like the sun
See your face but cant tell what youre thinking
Are you running through the past and where its gone
Dont worry now the wars already won
The wars already won
Got a card the other day
Capistrano Fair
Told me it was beautiful now fall was in the air
Swallows all were leaving
They circled round the bay
But theyd come back there next year on exactly the same day
You told me that the leavings getting easier with time
Cause you learned how not to ever look behind
(CHORUS)
Candice Ive been dreaming
And in my mind Im watching over you just like the sun
See your face but cant tell what youre thinking
Are you running through the past and where its gone
Dont worry now the wars already won
The wars already won
(INSTRUMENTAL VERSE)
I know that things will never be the same again for you
And I know your restless heart cannot be told
For every road you wish youd traveled I can show you two
Where the summer rain shines like polished gold
(CHORUS)
Candice Ive been dreaming
And in my mind Im watching over you just like the sun
See your face but cant tell what youre thinking
Are you running through the past and where its gone
Dont worry now the wars already won
The wars already won
end on
