I see colors in my mind
But this world is black and white
I see colors in my head
When I close my eyes and go to bed
I know it seems like I'm moving on
But really we have only just begun
So let me tell you how it is
The lights of Los Angeles
I wish you didn't have to miss
The lights of Los Angeles
See the city and the ocean mist
I wish you could be here for this
I wish you could be here for this
Feel the warmth of the ocean wind
And the taste of salt on the tip of my lips
Give me a smoke, come fill my lungs
As I stare out into the Sun
And I know it seems like I changed my mind
Good things always take a little time
So let me tell you how it is
The lights of Los Angeles
I wish you didn't have to miss
The lights of Los Angeles
See the city and the ocean mist
I wish you could be here for this
I wish you didn't have to miss
I wish you didn't have to
I wish you could be here for this
I close my eyes and count to ten
To see those colors once again
So let me tell you how it is
The lights of Los Angeles
I wish you didn't have to miss
The lights of Los Angeles
See the city and the ocean mist
I know it seems like I changed my mind
Good things always take a little time
