Hollywood & Vine

(album: Grapefruit Season - 2021)

I'll never be the type of guy
Who could stand at Hollywood and Vine
Without feeling like some kind of creep

Yeah

I'll always be uncomfortable
With every paper friend that I have lost
Depending on the day, the week
And how much I have had to eat

Foot on the table
Head on the ground
I tried to tell you
I'll come around

And all that it takes is some time
Is some time apart
Asking questions, digging graves
Buried in the dark
All that I've taken
All that you make me
Someone you wanna love

Then every time
I behave like somebody who
In the end doesn't get that I rely on you
All that I've taken
All that you make me
Someone you wanna love
One you want, one you want
Want, ooh, want

And now all I hear is open season
I got held back by sarcastic demons
Hiding in our bathroom floor

Then right behind was someone floating
And right before that wall burst open
I swear to God I heard you call

Foot on the ceiling
Head on your knees
I pray to Kanye you'll never leave

'Cause all that it takes is some time
Is some time apart
Asking questions, digging graves
Buried in the dark
All that I've taken
All that you make me
Someone you wanna love

Then every time
I behave like somebody who
In the end doesn't get that I rely on you
All that I've taken
All that you make me
Someone you wanna love
One you want, one you want
Want, want

But I'm old enough to finally get it
The moon and stars don't follow when I run
And the sky above is not my canvass
And the trees, the trees don't wither when I'm gone
But it's like something, something, pure emotion
It's like something, something, love you till I drop
And I see it all with eyes wide open now

Yeah
Yeah

'Cause all that it takes is some time
Is some time apart
Asking questions, digging graves
Buried in the dark
All that I've taken
All that you make me
Someone you wanna love

Then every time
I behave like somebody who
In the end doesn't get that I rely on you
All that I've taken
All that you make me
Someone you wanna love
One you want, one you want
Want, want
