L.A Lyrics

Out in L.A. and broke on the ticket that this fella sent me
One change of clothes in the suitcase that my girlfriend lent me
I stayed for a while at his place, running with this crowd of his
Partying day after day, and meeting everybody in the Biz

Oh they know how to do it in L.A.
They know how to make it seem brand new
Though its true, what they say
That its only a dream
And a dream is a wish you wish for you
In L.A. the dream can 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 late one afternoon, didn't quite know where I was
Left over taste in my mouth, and that morning after buzz

I packed my bags and split, found myself a dancing 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 through one day at a time, find a way of staying numb
Don't look in the mirror to see what you've become

But they now how to do it in L.A.
They know how to make it seem brand new
Though is true, what the say
That its only a dream
And a dream is a wish you wish for you
In L.A. the dream can true

Yes they know how to do it in L.A.
They know that somewhere out there the sky is blue
So just smile, when they say
That "Its only a dream"
And you'll get what is coming to you
In L.A.
In L.A.
In L.A. the dream can come true
