hollywood nights

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

he was too far from home

she took his hand and she led him along that golden beach

they watched the waves tumble over the sand

they drove for miles and miles

up those twisting turning roads

higher and higher and higher they climbed

and those hollywood nights

in those hollywood hills

she was looking so right

in her diamonds and frills

all those big city nights

in those high rolling 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

day after day

it went on and on

then came that morning he woke up alone

he spent all night staring down at the lights of la

wondering if he could ever go home

and those hollywood nights

in those hollywood hills

she was looking so right

it was giving him chills

in those big city nights

in those high rolling 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

all those big city nights

in those high rolling hills

above all the lights

she had all of the skills
