Take me away to January

 I'm done with this year, I'm tired of everyone here

 I just need some time alone

 Before I'm ready to come back home

There's gotta be something else out there for me

 I could feel it in my heart the day I started to dream

 There's more than this Midwestern town

 I can't let this place keep me down

 So I tell myself

 There's a girl out on the coast of California,

 There's a world out there and it's waiting for you.

 And I can hear them calling my name tonight.

Take me away, I need the sand and the waves

 The sunset and let's not forget those warm autumn days

 I just need to get out of here

 And visit the coast just to see her

There's gotta be something else out there for me

 I could feel it in my heart the day I started to dream

 There's more than this Midwestern town

 I can't let this place keep me down

 So I tell myself

 There's a girl out on the coast of California,

 There's a world out there and it's waiting for you.

 And I can hear them calling my name tonight.
