L.A.'s Not The Same

Driving down the road where you used to live
I almost ran the red, the flashbacks flooding in
It's like you're sitting there right by my side
You're still playing with my hair while I try to drive

I had it figured out, just like a fairy tale
Of you and me and all our dreams, we'd never fail
It seems that things don't always go as planned
'Cause you left before we really got our chance

Well, L.A.'s not the same, feels like a darker place
Boulevard don't shine as bright, the magic's gone from city lights
You made the stars align, held up Hollywood sign
Now that you're miles away, L.A.'s not the same
Hey, it's not the same

Angry people piled up on the 405
I guess I never really noticed with your hand in mine
But if I had the chance, I'd never make you stay
But I swear now that we've gone our separate ways

L.A.'s not the same, feels like a darker place
Boulevard don't shine as bright, the magic's gone from city lights
You made the stars align, held up Hollywood sign
Now that you're miles away, L.A.'s not the same
It's not the same

L.A.'s not the same, feels like a darker place
Boulevard don't shine as bright, the magic's gone from city lights
You made the stars align, held up Hollywood sign
Now that you're miles away, L.A.'s not the same
Hey, it's not the same

Driving down the road where you used to live
It's gone to grey, the colors fade, just like you did
