Lyrics Michael Stanley

Michael Stanley

After Hollywood

From "Coming Up For Air", 1996, Intersound Music

She smiles like it's costing her money

She laughs like she's wasting her time

Just a small town girl all alone

on the edge of the night

with a boy back home wondering

does she think of him tonight...

(CHORUS:)

Is there life after Hollywood

Is there love after all

Is there life after Hollywood

If there is, please call...

She said someday she'd be somebody

and everyone they'll know her name

Down the boulevard, running

hard, chasing after that dream

Ah, but in this town things are

not ever quite what they seem...

(CHORUS)

(BRIDGE):

She's over the line and they

know it

She'll do anything just for a taste

Too much too soon and she

knows it

One more former pretty face...

(CHORUS)
