i guess the most that i can do
is make a call and tell you the truth
sing the words in melody
and hope that you’ll believe me
here’s another song for you
so this one this one makes two
still don’t know where to begin
i’ll just leave it at this
i’m sure you always feel my eyes on you
but i hope that you will never feel unwanted
wait for me to move out west
it’s ok if you don’t
i hope you know
you’re my favorite thing
about the west coast
i wish i stayed
i hope you wait
so here i am
counting down the days
till california comes
this is the least that i can do
you know i’m bad at calling you
the best way i can accept
the lonely words i miss you
i’ll say it but i’m sure you knew
you’re what i look most forward to
coming back to where i’ve been
i’ll just leave it at this
i’m sure you always feel my eyes on you
but i hope that you will never feel unwanted
if you feel unwanted
wait for me to move out west
it’s ok if you don’t
i hope you know
you’re my favorite thing
about the west coast
i wish i stayed
i hope you wait
so here i am
counting down the days
till california comes
wait for me to move out west
it’s ok if you don’t
i hope you know
you’re my favorite thing
about the west coast
i wish i stayed
i hope you wait
so here i am
counting down the days

We the Kings are an unapologetically commercial pop-punk band from Bradenton, FL, a small town on the west coast of the state notable primarily for being the home of Tropicana orange juice. Friends since childhood (the band name refers to the name of their junior high mascot), the foursome — singer and guitarist Travis Clark, guitarist Hunter Thomsen, his bassist brother Drew Thomsen, and drummer Danny Duncan — formed the band while still attending high school. In 2007, under the guidance of manager Bret Disend, the still-teenage quartet placed a number of tracks on the social-networking site Purevolume to build their online buzz as an unsigned band while pursuing a deal with EMI’s revived faux-indie imprint S-Curve Records (Joss Stone, Fountains of Wayne, the Baha Men). Their self-titled debut album was produced by Sam Hollander and mixed by Lou Giordano, who had each done the same for then-current chart favorites Gym Class Heroes and the Plain White T’s, respectively.-AMG.
