Intro:   (x3) verse 1 I’m about as small town as you can get   I’m talkin two lanes one cop Plowed up fields catching red sunsets   We get nervous when the rain stops Never had a reason to leave this place   Never had a reason to get away The wheels just touched down in California   Man I don’t even like to fly   I just gotta see her with the sun shining on her in the water   Chrome aviators on her eyes   I never had a reason to get away I never had a reason to see this place   She gave me a reason to love L.A       (x2) verse 2 She said she had to be where that sun dropped down   I’m talkin fast lane goodbye   She’d chase it all the way till that road ran out   And parked it underneath the pink sky   I wanna hear those waves come crashing in I wanna feel that sand and that wind   I wanna go everywhere she’s been hold her again The wheels just touched down in California   Man I don’t even like to fly   I just gotta see her with the sun shining on her in the water   Chrome aviators on her eyes                            I never had a reason to get away I never had a reason to see this place... The wheels just touched down in California   Man I don’t even like to fly   I just gotta see her with the sun shining on her in the water   Chrome aviators on her eyes   I never had a reason to get away I never had a reason to see this place   She gave me a reason to love L.A Outro

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque la simplicité et la beauté d'une petite ville tout en exprimant le désir de découvrir de nouveaux horizons, notamment à Los Angeles. Le narrateur, initialement ancré dans son cadre rural, prend conscience de l'importance de l'amour qui le pousse à explorer un autre lieu. Il décrit comment la présence d'une personne spéciale lui donne une raison de s'évader et d'apprécier un environnement ensoleillé et vibrant, comme celui de la Californie. Ce retour au soleil et à la mer est une métaphore de l'amour et des nouvelles aventures qu'il souhaite vivre aux côtés de celle qu'il aime.
