All the leaves are brown 
And the sky is grey 
I went for a walk 
On a winter's day 
I'd be safe and warm 
If I was in L.A. 
California dreamin' 
On such a winter's day 

I stopped into a church (stopped into a church) 
I passed along the way (passed along the way) 
Well, I got down on my knees (got down on my knees) 
And I began to pray (I began to pray) 
Oh, the preacher likes the cold (preacher likes the cold) 
He knows I'm gonna stay (knows I'm gonna stay) 
Oh, California dreamin' (California dreamin') 
On such a winter's day 

All the leaves are brown (the leaves are brown) 
And the sky is grey (and the sky is grey) 
I went for a walk (I went for a walk) 
On a winter's day (on a winter's day) 
If I didn't tell her (if I didn't tell her) 
I could leave today (I could leave today) 

Oh, California dreamin' (California dreamin') 
On such a winter's day (California dreamin') 
On such a winter's day (California dreamin') 
On such a winter's day (California dreamin') 
On such a winter's day
