Hollywood is such a dream,
|
And when you're only seventeen, it's wonderful,
|
A movie man said she could be a star,
|
A beauty queen, or a cover girl,
|
She believes and packs up her things,
|
And the wall of silence begins;
|
|
Every night was party night,
|
She was everyone's delight, he let her stay,
|
And when he'd had enough, he threw her out,
|
And she found work in a small cafe,
|
When she called they put her on hold,
|
And the wall of silence grows; Give me a break,
|
Give me a break,
|
This is Hollywood,
|
Open the door,
|
Open the door,
|
What am I going to do,
|
When the money runs out,
|
And there isn't any doubt,
|
That I'll have nowhere to go. Hollywood is just a dream,
|
But when you're only seventeen, it's magical,
|
She went home to hide away,
|
She wore her sadness like a veil, and closed the door,
|
Till the day she smiles and recalls,
|
And the wall of silence falls...
