Gone Hollywood

(الألبوم: Breakfast In America - 1979)

It's just heartbreaking
I should've known that it would let me down
It's just a mind-aching
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 nothing new in my life today
Ain't nothing true, it's all gone away

I've had too much crying, seen too much grief
I'm sick of trying, it's beyond belief
I'm tired of talking 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 heartbreaking
Now I ride in the big fine car
It was mind-aching
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
