Hollywood, California

She had stars in her eyes

In her dreams every night

So she packed her bags

And took a ride out to Hollywood

She took the town by storm

Another star was born

Now she don't come back here

To see us anymore

From Hollywood, California

She's up there on the silver screen

Her face in every magazine

They said she'd never make it

But I knew she would

In Hollywood, California

I wonder if she thinks of me

And how good we used to be

But then why would she

When life's so good

In Hollywood, California

I thought for sure we'd settle down

Right here in our hometown

Find ourselves a little house

And raise a family

Oh but she had other plans

She loved to sing and dance

And there's just some things

You can't do here

That I guess you can

In Hollywood, California

She's up there on the silver screen

Her face in every magazine

They said she'd never make it

But I knew she would

In Hollywood, California

I wonder if she thinks of me

And how good we used to be

But then why would she

When life's so good

In Hollywood, California

She called me last night

She said I know it's past midnight

But could you be on the next flight

'Cause I need you here

I need to feel you near

I've cried so many tears

Since I came

To Hollywood, California

All of my sweetest dreams

They don't mean anything

Oh if you're not here with me

In Hollywood, California
