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.

I’d like to dream my troubles all away
on a bed of California stars,
jump up from my star-bed, 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.
