Hollywood Lyrics

[Verse 1: Lewis Capaldi]
Out of focus, didn't take a second to notice
Now we're separated by oceans, vast
Couldn't make this last

[Pre-Chorusv]
I wish I'd have stayed
'Cuz love can find a way to make your feet run heavy
Make your heart unsteady
Then it breaks, so I'm praying that you're feeling the same

[Chorus: Lewis Capaldi]
You know I spent some time in Hollywood trying to find
Something to get the thought of you and I off my mind
So tell me honey, oh, when you're just a step away from falling apart
Do you ever feel like going back to the start?

[Verse 2: Lewis Capaldi]
All the streetlights illuminate what home used to feel like
And when I get to thinking, can't sleep at night
No, I don't feel right

[Pre-Chorus: Lewis Capaldi]
I wish I'd have stayed
'Cuz love can find a way to make your feet run heavy
Make your heart unsteady
Then it breaks, so I'm praying that you're feeling the same

[Chorus: Lewis Capaldi]
You know I spent some time in Hollywood trying to find
Something to get the thought of you and I off my mind
So tell me honey, oh, when you're just a step away from falling apart
Do you ever feel like going back to the start?
Oh, and you know I would if I could
Maybe I spend more time in Hollywood than I should
So tell me honey, oh, when you're just a step away from falling apart
Do you ever feel like going back to the start?

[Bridge: Lewis Capaldi]
If you can hear me, does it really have to end?
I feel you close, although you're eight hours ahead
If we can pick it up, just tell me where and when
We'll go back to the start again
If you can hear me, does it really have to end?
I feel you close, although you're eight hours ahead
If we can pick it up, just tell me where and when
We'll go back to the start again

[Chorus: Lewis Capaldi]
You know I spent some time in Hollywood trying to find
(If you can hear me, does it really have to end?)
Something to get the thought of you and I off my mind
(I feel you close, although you're eight hours ahead)
So tell me honey, oh, when you're just a step away from falling apart
(If we can pick it up, just tell me where and when)
Do you ever feel like going back?
You know I spent some time in Hollywood trying to find
Something to get the thought of you and I off my mind
So tell me honey, oh, when you're just a step away from falling apart
Do you ever feel like going back to the start?
Oh, and you know I would if I could
Maybe I spend more time in Hollywood than I should
So tell me honey, oh, when you're just a step away from falling apart
Do you ever feel like going back to the start?
