The days we spent together, 
The nights would last forever
But all good things must come to an end
Senior year is almost over
And I've never felt closer
To my friends who I can count on and depend

On and on I'll say
The more I stay
The longer you wait
Cause California's so far away
Day by day
I feel the same
And I don't want us to fade away

So we're miles and miles and miles away
From the spots that we made memories
You said we'd be together
That we'd be friends forever
With promise and tears in our eyes
We bit our lips and said goodbye
Knowing we may never meet again

On and on I'll say
The more I stay
The longer you wait
Cause California's so far away
And day by day
I feel the same
And I don't want us to fade away

I promised you I'd follow through
On all the things I said I'd do
But most the time it wont work out that way
The horizon seems to fade away
It's further now than yesterday
Cause where you are is where I belong

The more I stay
The longer you wait
Cause California's so far away
Day by day
I feel the same
And I don't want us to fade away
