Bright lights, big city, stars in my eyes
Chasing dreams, taking chances, Hollywood highs
But behind the glitz, there's a price to pay
For every wish granted, a game to play
Hollywood heartache, tinseltown tears
Broken promises, wasted years
Sunset Strip sorrow, Boulevard of Pain
In this town of make-believe, love's not the same
Fell for your lines, believed every word
Gave you my heart, now it's been deferred
You got the part, our love on hold
In a town where fame is bought and sold
Hollywood heartache, tinseltown tears
Broken promises, wasted years
Sunset Strip sorrow, Boulevard of Pain
In this town of make-believe, love's not the same
I am gonna leaving, LA in the rear view
Saying goodbye, to the me and you
That never was, just a story line
Time to let go, leave it all behind
Hollywood heartache, tinseltown tears
Broken promises, wasted years
Sunset Strip sorrow, Boulevard of Pain
In this town of make-believe, love's not the same
Hollywood heartache, a role I can't play
It's time for this starlet to find a new way
Leaving with a suitcase full of dreams
The one thing I've learned is nothing's as it seems
