I`m coming home from my hardest year
I`m making plans not to
Make plans while I`m here
And this life has been no holiday
A complicated situation
I`m fine with all my memories
Still I could use vacation
It`s Christmas in California
And it`s hard to ignore that
It feels like summer all the time
But I`ll take a West Coast winter
To remove my splinters
It`s good to be alive
It`s good to be alive
I`m coming home
To the lights and buzz
Streets look the same
Still nothing`s as it was
And this place is paradise I`m sure
Here`s my reservation
I`ve gotten lost here once before
Inside a good vibration
It`s Christmas in California
And it`s hard to ignore that
It feels like summer all the time
But I`ll take a West Coast winter
To remove my splinters
It`s good to be alive
It`s good to be alive
It`s good to be alive
And time
It`s said it stops for no one.
The seasons come and go and that`s just time.
Well it`s said it stops for no one.
The seasons keep on going
Whether or not we`re blind.
It`s Christmas in California
And it`s hard to ignore that
It feels like summer all the time
But I`ll take a West Coast winter
To remove my splinters
It`s good to be alive
It`s good to be alive
It`s good to be alive
(It`s good to be alive)
