Hollywood Phase

Ain't it just like the movies Pull the trigger with a kiss Smoking barrel on the water Moonlight 'cross a lover's wrist Ain't it just like the movies Stars reloading, shoot and miss Thigh to thigh beside the river Watching heaven's crossfire hiss Ain't it just like a love song Can you hear the violins Car alarms and sirens sounding Chest pounding, just breathing Ain't it just like a love song Far and near the city sings Distant whispered vows resounding On the water and the wind I need you where you are The way you are We're in the Hollywood phase In the Hollywood phase We're in the Hollywood phase I'm counting the days Til the feeling fades We're in the Hollywood phase Show me your spirit, show your soul Can you forgive it if I lose control right now In a rock'n'roll freakout There's something different going down Show me you're with it, bright and bold I'm gonna hit it til the night falls on me Til I'm a rock'n'roll zombie Shaking in the grave In the Hollywood phase The Hollywood phase No way Ain't it just like a romance I can read it in your eyes Sighs and silence cycle aimless Famous phrases memorised Ain't it just like a romance Favourite pages' corners torn Thigh to thigh beside the river Words will rise and meet the dawn
