Lyrics
Hollywood Nights
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
She stood there bright as the sun on that California coast
He was a midwestern boy on his own
She looked at him with those soft eyes so innocent and blue
He knew right then he was too far from home
Oh, he was too far from home
She took his hand and she led him along on that golden beach
They watched the waves tumble over the sand
They drove for miles and miles on those twisting turning roads
Higher and higher and higher they climbed
In those Hollywood nights, in those Hollywood hills
She was lookin' so right, in her diamonds and frills
Oh those big city nights, in those high rollin' hills
Above all the lights, she had all of the skills
He'd headed west cause he felt that a change would do him good
See some old friends, good for the soul
She had been born with a face that would let her get her way
He saw that face and he lost all control
He had lost all control
Night after night and day after day it went on and on
Then came that morniing he woke up alone
He spent the day staring down at the lights of LA
Wondering if he could ever go home
In those Hollywood nights, in those Hollywood hills
She was looking so right, it was giving him chills
Oh those big city nights, in those high rollin' hills
Above all the lights, with a passion that kills
In those Hollywood nights, in those Hollywood hills
She was looking so right, in her diamonds and frills
Oh those big city nights, in those high rollin' hills
Above all the lights, she had all of those skills
