They're playing guitars, with stars in their eyes on Broadway
They're just payin' their dues and waitin' for news on a big break
I wish you were here, 'cause sometimes I get lonely
Guess I'm not the only new girl in townMama, I promise I'll be alright
I'll call to say I love you every night
I'm just tryin' to write the story of my lifeYou know all about this dream I've gotta chase
I get a little closer every day
California's not that far away
We're not that far awayThere's so many new faces and beautiful places in this town
I'm learnin' the ropes on this crazy road I'm goin' down
I'm makin' my way, no one said that it'd be easy
Trust me, and believe me, I'm where I belongMama, I promise I'll be alright
I'll call to say I love you every night
I'm just tryin' to write the story of my life, oh oohYou know all about this dream I gotta chase
I get a little closer every day
California's not that far away
I'm not that far awayWe're miles apart, but you're in my heart
I keep you with me everywhere I goMama, I promise I'll be alright
I'll call to say I love you every night
I'm just tryin' to write the story of my life, oh oohYou know all about this dream I gotta chase
I get a little closer every day
California's not that far away
I'm not that far away
I'm not that far away
I'm not that far away
