Verse 1

Leaving the Arizona sunset behind,

Travelin' down the road, with tears in her eyes.

She said, "We’ll find new lives, while watchin’ the surf roll by,

In a golden land, where the waves meet the sky.

Pre-Chorus

From desert sunsets to California breeze,

She’s livin' a life she could only dream.

Chorus

Making a life as the days roll by,

She writes her name in the California sky.

Knowing what she once rose above,

A new life and what she’s made of.

The golden girl, living her Gold Coast dreams.

Her Gold Coast Dreams....

Verse 2

Working in the late lamp light,

Goals in motion, goals in sight.

In grad school now, she finds her voice,

Climbing every hill, every mountain in sight.

Livin' her dreams, she has found her way,

A California girl, she’s here to stay.

Pre-Chorus

From desert sunsets to California breeze,

She’s livin' a life she could only dream.

Chorus

Making a life as the days roll by,

She writes her name in the California sky.

Knowing what she once rose above,

A new life and what she’s made of.

The golden girl, living her Gold Coast dreams.

Her Gold Coast Dreams....

Bridge

She grew into who she always wanted to be,

She found her voice and she found her wings.

She’s all grown now, and the whole world can see…

The California girl that she always meant to be.

Final Chorus

Now her light shines bright at UCI,

Building a life as the days go by.

From Arizona sky, to Ocean breeze,

She’s become the woman she always believed.

As the sun sets and light fades from her sight,

Her dreams in the air on a cool, breezy night.

Standing at the shore, she hears a whisper from the sea,

“You and I, baby, we're livin’ our gold coast dreams.”

Outro

Gold Coast dreams,

Yeah, Gold Coast dreams.
