Lyrics
you love la more than me
and so she grabs
she grabs the warmest coat she'll find
she walks from Hollywood and vine
under its wings
her cigarette
it lights up slowly in her hands
it brightens up the darkest nights that she'll regret
and she sings
the lovely swinging life away
the meanings deeper than the crowd around her thinks
and she sings
Davinci painted all my rooms
but sometimes the colors not enough
to pay the bills or stay with you
and while I'm at home
I'm singing the same song
the boy in me is screaming
at the top of his lungs
(chorus)
you love LA more than me
and i cant accept that
girl you really made me believe
we'd live forever
Mona Lisa smiles down
while i cross my fingers now
and our hearts beat out loud
in the streets of LA
I can tell
I can tell she's beautiful in bed
in the morning when she wakes up from a dream
she'll soon forget
and her hair
smells of a castle down in France
just like the one i promised her
while she's asleep
and she sings
Davinci painted all my rooms
but sometimes the colors not enough
to pay the bills or stay with you
Here I am Singing the same song
(chorus)
