She stood there bright as the sun on that c alifornia coast
He was a midwestern boy on his o wn
She looked at him with those soft eyes, So innocent and blue
He knew right then he was too far from ho me
She took his hand and she led him along that golden beach
They watched the waves tumble ov er the sand
They drove for miles and miles Up those tw isting turning roads
Higher and higher and higher they climb ed
And those hollywood nights In those h ollywood hills
She was looking so right In her di amonds and frills
Oh those big city nights In those high rolling hills
Above all the lights She had al l of the skills
He'd headed west cause he felt that a chang e Would do him good
See some old friends, good for the soul
She had been born with a face that would let her get her way
He saw that face and he lost all control H e had lost all control
Night after night, day after day, it went on and on
Then came that morning he woke up a lone
He spent all night staring down at the li ghts of L.A.
Wondering if he could ever go home
And those hollywood nights In those h ollywood hills
It was l ooking so right It was gi ving him chills
Oh those big city nights In those high rolling hills
Above all the lights With a pa ssion that kills
And those hollywood nights In those h ollywood hills
She was looking so right In her di amonds and frills
Oh those big city nights In those high rolling hills
Above all the lights She had al l of the skills
