California King Bed
♫ Rihanna Lyrics

Chest to chest
We were intimately close.

Nose to nose
We were in close proximity, face to face.

Palm to palm
Our hands were physically connected.

We were always just that close
We were emotionally and physically connected.

Wrist to wrist
Our arms were intertwined.

Toe to toe
We were standing very closely together.

Lips that felt just like the inside of a rose
Our kisses were deep, passionate, and tender.

So how come when I reach out my finger
Despite being so close, I feel a great distance between us.

It feels like more than distance between us
Our emotional distance is greater than our physical distance.

In this California king bed
Even though we're on this big comfortable bed, we feel far apart.

We're ten thousand miles apart
Our emotional distance feels as great as a transcontinental distance.

I'll be California wishing on these stars
I'll keep hoping for our relationship to improve, as if wishing on these stars.

For you're heart on me
For you to love me fully and openly, as I deserve.

My California king
You may be distant right now, but in my mind, you're still my king.

Eye to eye
We looked deeply into each other's eyes.

Cheek to cheek
We were pressed tightly together, face to face.

Side by side
We were physically close, sharing the same bed.

You were sleeping next to me
You were so close to me, yet so distant at the same time.

Arm in arm
Our arms were wrapped around each other.

Dusk to dawn
We spent the entire night together, from sunset to sunrise.

With the curtains drawn
We were in a private, intimate setting.

And a little last night on these sheets
We made love in this bed last night, but it didn't fix our problems.

It seems like more than distance between us
Our emotional distance feels insurmountable, like something more than physical distance.

Just when I felt like giving up on us
I was on the brink of ending our relationship.

You turned around and gave me one last touch
You did something that reminded me of why I fell in love with you.

That made everything feel better
The little gesture you did made me feel more hopeful about our future.

And even then my eyes got wetter
I was so overwhelmed with emotion that I started crying.

So confused wanna ask you if you love me
I'm not sure if your actions reflect your love for me, and I'm scared to ask.

But I don't wanna seem so weak
I don't want you to think I'm needy or insecure.

Maybe I've been California dreaming
Maybe I've been hoping for a perfect, picturesque relationship that isn't realistic.

My California king
Despite our problems, you still reign supreme in my heart and mind.
