[Verse 1]
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 tell me why
I must keep working on
Yes, I’d give my life
To lay my head tonight on a bed
Of California stars

[Verse 2]
I’d like to dream
My troubles all away
On a bed
Of California stars
Jump up from my starbed
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

[Verse 1]
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 tell me why
I must keep working on
Yes, I’d give my life
To lay my head tonight on a bed
Of California stars

[Verse 2]
I’d like to dream
My troubles all away
On a bed
Of California stars
Jump up from my starbed
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

[Outro]
So I’d give this world
Just to dream a dream with you
On our bed
Of California stars
Dream a dream with you

[Verse 1]
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

And tell me why
I must keep working on
Yes, I’d give my life
To lay my head tonight on a bed
Of California stars
