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

Oh, he was too far from home



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

They watched the waves tumble over the sand

They drove for miles and miles on those twisting turning roads

Higher and higher and higher they climbed



In those Hollywood nights, in those Hollywood hills

She was lookin' so right, in her diamonds and frills

Oh those big city nights, in those high rollin' 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 and day after day it went on and on

Then came that morniing he woke up alone

He spent the day staring down at the lights of LA

Wondering if he could ever go home



In those Hollywood nights, in those Hollywood hills

She was looking so right, it was giving him chills

Oh those big city nights, in those high rollin' 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

Oh those big city nights, in those high rollin' hills

Above all the lights, she had all of those skills
