"Hollywood Ending" lyrics
"Hollywood Ending"
Our story roars to life
A hundred miles from the county line
With the glowing horizon
Where our hero dreams of building
By the light of the star-studded hills
We'd all be happy to die on
Angels in her corner
Cables disappearing over
All of the disbelief that we've been suspending
Wishing away the winter
With three coins in a concrete river
Angels, deliver our Hollywood ending
She feels but cannot see
The desert for the mighty trees
Dreamed up by our fathers
Who watered without rain
As more and more heroes came
To feast on their own hunger
Angels in their corners
Cables disappearing over
All of the disbelief that we've been suspending
As summer buys out winter
With three coins from a concrete river
Angels deliver us our Hollywood ending
Our Hollywood ending
Now our hero spends her nights
Above the striving and the strife
Of the shimmering valley
And we've followed her until
We're on the same star-studded hill
With the same hole in our finale
Painted into a corner
Angels disappearing under
The weight of the disbelief that we've been suspending
Another year of summer
With nobody to hear us wonder
Who's gonna deliver us from our Hollywood ending now
Our Hollywood ending now
Our Hollywood ending now
Our Hollywood ending

Going Out…
…Despite The Weather

The Decemberists - "Down By The Water" See this ancient riverbed
See where all the follies led
Down by the water and
Down by the old main drag
I was just some tow-head teen
Feeling round for fingers to get in between
Down by the water...
Aimee Mann - "Two Of Us" Two of us riding nowhere
Spending someone's hard earned pay
You and me Sunday driving
Not arriving on our way back home
We're on our way back home
We're on our way home
We're going home
Two of us...
Darlingside - "Go Back" We were always on our way
Rolling up our sleeves
Ever moving forward
In the tracks where we lived our simple lives
Kept our blinders on
Eyes to the horizon
I know I'm no doctor but I know
You can't...
The Raconteurs - "Old Enough" You look pretty in your fancy dress
But I detect unhappiness
You never speak so I have to guess
You're not free.
There, maybe when you're old enough
You'll realize you're not so tough
And...
