Gotta get a message through 'Cause I think I'm losing you Am I too late? Drinking heavy, trying to lose some time I gotta know if you're still mine And I can't wait
Last time I saw your face You tried to hide the tears But I could see the trace I'd be there if I could But it's so far away from home Lost in Hollywood
In the dark the vultures wait I can hear them Knocking at my gate But I'm not here The brew is cold The meat is stale
In the L.A. night the sirens wail The song you can feel Pale stars that never shine Scotch and the whiskey And the Rainbow local wine She's done more bad than good I gotta get away somehow Lost in Hollywood
On the streets the sun is fine Don't you feel the advantage hit your mind Feels all right, oh yeah But I'm a lover Like a loaded gun
Chasing shadows on the run Out in the night I'm gonna lose control If I been losing you To pay for rock'n'roll
Get back and love what I should Gotta get back home to you You don't know what I've been through But there's nothing I can't do Lost in Hollywood
