Song Lyrics

Like a sound you hear that lingers in your ear
But you can't forget from sundown to sunset, no, no

It's all in the air, you hear it everywhere
No matter what you do, it's gonna grab a hold on you

California soul
California soul

They say the sun comes up every morning, aah
And if you listen oh so carefully
The winds that ride on the high tide
Whistles a melody
So the people started to sing
And that's how the surf gave birth I'm told
To California soul
California soul (feels good)

When you hear the beat, you wanna pat your feet
And you've got to move 'cause it's really such a groove, nah, aha

Puts a brand new kind of thinkin' in your mind
And you can't go wrong 'cause you're groovin' all day long, aha

California soul
California soul, (soul)

They had the melody and the beat, yo
But it still didn't seem complete, yes
Until they saw two lovers kissin', oh yeah
They knew just what was missin'
So happy they were rockin' and reelin
Because they had added that lovin' feeling
To California soul
California soul (but get with it)

Like a sound you hear that lingers in your ear, oh
You just can not forget it
From early in the morning 'til the sun goes down
It's in the air, it's in the air
Oh, it's our friend

Nickolas Ashford, Valerie Simpson
