"Hollywood" lyrics
"Hollywood"
Boards on the windows and chains on the door
A dusty, outdated marquee
But light bulbs still flicker, and people here tell me
The old movies play on repeat
And it's been a while since your friends let me know
The theater's an awful first date
But you looked so pretty, and I was so nervous
I couldn't have talked anyway
Despite all the years
Oh, I still hear symphonies swirlin' around you
So I find it strange
Oh, darlin', that you let these worries surround you
You've been so scared that you'll lose me
'Cause all of the runners you've seen
But darlin', we're Paul and Joanna
In chucks and blue jeans
And they'll try to put it in movies
But Hollywood can't fit it into frame
So they'll roll the cameras
And we'll still be dancin' backstage
I've driven longer than should be allowed
But concerts still don't play themselves
And my eyes get misty when talkin' about you
I'm hopin' Chicago can't tell
Despite all the years
Oh, I still hear symphonies swirlin' around you
My name in the lights
Oh, darlin', but I can't stop thinkin' about you
You've been so scared that you'll lose me
'Cause all of the runners you've seen
But darlin', we're Paul and Joanna
In chucks and blue jeans, ay
And they'll try to put it in movies
But Hollywood can't fit it into frame
So they'll roll the cameras
And we'll still be dancin' backstage

Strings And Heart - "empty airport" I can meet the Lord on the floor of an empty airport
I can hear His voice over coffee in the dawn sometimes
Could try to talk a way around it
But I think I'd rather sing about it
I can meet the Lord...
Morningsiders - "Coffee, Wind, And Pollen" With a folded corner, with a sudden bloom
With a splash of color, sun bleeding through
Didn't even notice all this new life
From way up high
Coffee, wind, and pollen
Coffee, wind, and pollen
Coffee,...
Kings Kaleidoscope - "Lamb Of God" Your only Son, no sin to hide
But you have sent Him from Your side
To walk upon this guilty sod
And to become the Lamb of God
Your gift of love, they crucified
They laughed and scorned Him as He...
Zach Seabaugh - "Hi, Hello" You got a heart like a runaway train
You can change your clothes you can change your name
Cover up your past with a new tattoo
Probably do it all again in a month or two
Cause you've been running so...
Henrik - "Stay Here" I think of a moment that used to exist
Your hair's a bit shorter, your smile's a bit thin
I blinked in the photo, who knows what I missed
What did I miss?
As summer turns colder, the car that's...
