Leave Me Hollywood

(album: Canyonlands - 2016)

If everyone could see it, but never let it show
It doesn't hurt any less to be the last to know
I took a walk down 3rd Street, it's lonely and it's changed
Yeah, coffee at our old place, it doesn't taste the same

I'm moving out, I'm tired now, I see your face in everything
The other side of town is calling my name

And you can take Sunset up to Mulholland Drive
You can have the coastline out to the 405
Downtown, northbound and I'll still survive
But at least you could leave me Hollywood

Up around your canyon, I can see the stars
The hills are my companions, they've gotten me this far
The troubadour fits better than you ever did
Lost among the angels, learning to forgive

I'm going out, I'm ready now, gonna fall in love again
And I'm not missing you, but I'm wishing you the best

And you can take Sunset up to Mulholland Drive
You can have the coastline out to the 405
I'm downtown, northbound, and I'll still survive
But at least you could leave me

Time to take my chances, walking with the masses
I just wanted you to know (I just wanted you to know)
That witholding all the malice has taught me how
To let you go

And you can take Sunset up to Mulholland Drive
And you can have the coastline out to the 405
Downtown, northbound, and I'll still survive
At least you could leave me Hollywood

(No, you can't have it all, no, you can't have it all)
Leave me Hollywood
(No, you can't have it all)
Leave me Hollywood
(No, you can't have it all, no, you can't have it all)
Leave me Hollywood
(No, you can't have it all)
But at least you could leave me Hollywood
