Well, I know it's all been said before
But that will not stop me from trying
To explain to you everything
I said is true, yeah
You know you light up my whole world

I thought I lost my heart way back in florida
Then I found it in california
I guess that's how things go
Cause no one really knows
What life's got for ya
You better hire a real good lawyer
And take things
As they come in the california sun

One of the lucky ones
And every night I praise his name

That you have made me want to change
You know you light up my whole world

Then I found it in california
I guess that's how things go
Cause no one really knows
What god's planned for ya
You better hire a real good lawyer
And take things
As they come in the california sun

Oh, she makes me want to change

Yeah, she makes me want to change
