She had stars in her eyes, in her dreams every night
So she packed her bags and took a ride out to Hollywood
She took the town by storm, another star was born
Now she don't come back here to see us anymore
From Hollywood, California
She's up there on the silver screen, her face in every magazine
They said she'd never make it but I knew she would
In Hollywood, California, I wonder if she thinks of me
And how good we used to be but then why would she
When life's so good in Hollywood, California
I thought for sure we'd settle down, right here in our hometown
Find ourselves a little house and raise a family
Oh but she had other plans, she loved to sing and dance
And there's just some things you can't do here
That I guess you can in Hollywood, California
She's up there on the silver screen, her face in every magazine
They said she'd never make it but I knew she would
In Hollywood, California, I wonder if she thinks of me
And how good we used to be but then why would she
When life's so good in Hollywood, California
She called me last night
She said I know it's past midnight
But could you be on the next flight
'Cause I need you here, I need to feel you near
I've cried so many tears since I came to Hollywood, California
All of my sweetest dreams, they don't mean anything
Oh if you're not here with me in Hollywood, California
Hollywood, California
