An Orange Grove in California
Longing for Home: A Journey through California's Orange Groves
Lyrics
I've a longing to go
I have a strong desire to go
Where the oranges grow
To a place where oranges are cultivated
I know a cozy nest
I am aware of a comfortable and welcoming home
'Way out west
Located far towards the western region
And I miss it so
I deeply feel the absence of this place
California my own
California, a place I consider my own
Oh how lonely I've grown
I've become very lonely
That's why I'm on the run
Because of this, I'm traveling
To the one
To reunite with someone
I left there all alone
Whom I left behind, feeling isolated
Arm in arm we will rove
We'll stroll together affectionately
Through a sweet orange grove
Amidst a delightful orange plantation
Far away in California
Located at a distant place in California
Like a bird I mean to fly west again
Similar to a bird, I aim to return westward
And I'll hold her close to my breast again
I'll embrace her closely against my chest again
When the blossoms unfold
During the period when blossoms bloom
And the green turns to gold
And the greenery transforms into gold
Some fine day in California
At some wonderful day in California
You'll see a happy girlie and a happy fellow
You will witness a joyful young woman and a content man
'Mid the fields of yellow
Amongst the fields filled with yellow hues
In an orange grove
Within an orchard of orange trees
