| Additional Lyrics: |
| Please come to Denver where the snow falls |
| We'll move up into the mountains so high that we can't be found |
| Through "I love you" echoes down the canyon |
| And we'll lie awake at night 'til they come back around |
| Please come to L.A., we'll live forever |
| The California life alone is just too hard to bear |
| We'll live in a house that looks out over the ocean |
| And we'll see stars fall from the sky, livin' up on the hill |
