Lyrics:
- I’d like to rest my heavy head tonight
- On a bed of California stars
- I’d like to lay my weary bones tonight
- On a bed of California stars
- I’d love to feel your hand touching mine
- And ell me why i must keep working on
- Yes, I’d give my life to lay my head tonight
- On a bed of California stars
- I’d like to dream my troubles all away
- On a bed of California stars
- Jump up from my starbed and make another day
- Underneath my California stars
- They hang like grapes on vines that shine
- And warm the lovers glass like friendly wine
- So, I’d give this world just to dream a dream with you
- On our bed of California stars
