"Gone Hollywood" lyrics
"Gone Hollywood"
It's just heartbreakin'
I should've known that it would let me down
It's just a mind-achin'
I used to dream about this town
It was a sight to see, the place to be
Where the living is easy
And the kicks can always be found
It's such a shame about it
I used to think that it would feel so good
But who's to blame about it?
So many creeps in Hollywood
I'm in this dumb motel near the "Taco Bell"
Without a hope in hell
I can't believe that I'm still around
Ain't nothin' new in my life today
Ain't nothing true, it's all gone away
I've had too much cryin', seen too much grief
I'm sick of tryin', it's beyond belief
I'm tired of talkin' on the telephone
They're trying to tell me that they're not at home
Ain't nothing new in my life today
I've had enough of walking from place to place
I've yet to come across a friendly face
And now the words sound familiar, as they slam the door
"You're not what we're looking for"
Ain't nothing new in my life today
Ain't nothing true, it's all gone away
If we only had time, only had time for you
If we only had time, only had time for you
If we only had time, only had time for you
It was heartbreakin'
Now I ride in the big fine car
It was mind-achin'
I'm the talk of the Boulevard
So keep your chin up boy, forget the pain
I know you'll make it if you try again
There's no use in quitting
When the world is waiting for you

Huey Lewis & The News - "The Power Of Love" The power of love is a curious thing
Make a one man weep, make another man sing
Change a hawk to a little white dove
More than a feeling that's the power of love
Tougher than diamonds, rich like...

What hijacked my world that night

We're back on the train
Oh, back on the...
Al Stewart - "Almost Lucy" Lucy worked a different club every day,
And though she put her mind to it,
Her heart was never in it,
She stayed around just long enough to get paid,
She won't pass the time with you, she can't stay...
Fine Young Cannibals - "She Drives Me Crazy" I can't stop
The way I feel
Things you do
Don't seem real
Tell you what I got in mind
'Cause we're runnin' out of time
Won't you ever set me free?
This waitin' 'round's killin' me
She drives me...
