She stood there bright as the sun on that California coast

He was a midwestern boy on his own

She looked at him with those soft eyes, so innocent and blue

He knew right then he was too far from home

He was too far from home



She took his hand and she led him along that golden beach

They watched the waves tumble over the sand

They drove for miles and miles up those twisting turning roads

Higher and higher and higher they climbed



And those Hollywood night

In those Hollywood hills

She was looking so right

In her diamonds and frills

All those big city nights

In those high rolling hills

Above all the lights

She had all of the skills



He'd headed west 'cause he felt that a change 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

He had lost all control



Night after night, day after day, it went on and on

Then came that morning he woke up alone

He spent all night staring down at the lights of LA

Wondering if he could ever go home



And those Hollywood nights

In those Hollywood hills

It was looking so right

It was giving him chills

In those big city nights

In those high rolling hills

Above all the lights

With a passion that kills



In those Hollywood nights

In those Hollywood hills

She was looking so right

In her diamonds and frills

All those big city lights

In those high rolling hills

Above all the lights

She had all of the skills
