I saw you at the picture
Wearing that dress you never liked
You know, the one I bought for you
With purple flowers and green pinstripes
I know it’s ugly
That’s why I bought it for you
It needed natural beauty
A pretty girl would only do Where’s that dress, now?
Pull it out for the sunshine
Where’s that smile, now?
Let it out in the meantime
I’ll be waiting in northern California for ya I heard you had a story
Told by a girl you never liked
I know she’s not the sweetest
But she made me coffee in the late, late night
At least she calls me back
That’s nothing you’d ever do At least she takes her chances
I know, 'cause I counted all her tattoos
Where’s that dress, now?
Pull it out for the sunshine
Where’s that smile, now?
Let it out in the meantime
I’ll be waiting in northern California for ya
