L. in L.A.

歌詞

Out in L.A. and broke on the ticket that this fellow sent me One change of clothes in the suitcase my girlfriend Anna lent me I stayed for awhile in his place, runnin' with this crowd of his Partyin' day after day, meetin' everybody in the biz Oh, they know how to do it in L.A. They know how to make it seem brand new Though it's true what they say, that it's only a dream And a dream is a wish you wish for you In L.A the dream may come true After the booze and the coke The visions of the blue Pacific After the two hundredth time I told him he was just terrific I woke up one late afternoon And couldn't tell quite where I was Left-over taste in my mouth And the morning after buzz I packed my bag and split and found myself a dancin' job Worked the bar for tips and stripped for every lonely slob Counted every single minute as the hours went by Then fell in bed and cried til there were no more tears to cry You try to stop the thought from comin' That it never ends You think about how far you are From home and friends You get thru one day at a time You find a way of stayin' numb Don't look in the mirror To see what you've become But they know how to do it in L.A. They know hot to make it seem so new Though it's true what they say That's it's only a dream And a dream is a wish you wish for you In L.A. the dream may come true Yes, they know how to do it in L.A. They know how to make it seem brand new Though it's true what they say, that it's only a dream And a dream is a wish you wish for you In L.A, in L.A., in L.A. the dreams may all come... Yes, they know how to do it in L.A. They know that somewhere the sky is blue So smile when they say 'It's only a dream' And you'll get what is comin' to you In L.A, in L.A., in L.A. the dreams all come true
