Hollywood Hills and Spotlights - just finished this song, hope ya'll like it.

I like to take the back roads
Though I’ve got somewhere to go
Think I’ll turn off the radio
And listen to my soul
Cuz they don’t play the songs I know

I still manage to get lost
When I know what I want and I know where to go
Fifty wrong turnings on one right road

I’m going somewhere slow
And I can’t wait to get there
And see the sunrise
Who says that it’s about the climb?
This mountain’s so grey I’m only climbing this high
Cause I hope that up there I’ll find
Hollywood hills and spotlights

I promise I won’t turn back
As puddles turn to lakes
Leaking rain drops keep me awake
It’s a stormy picture
looking in the rear-view mirror

But I know I won’t lose track
Cuz I know what I want and I know where to go
And I see sunny skies down the road

I’m going somewhere slow
And I can’t wait to get there
And see the sunrise
Who says that it’s about the climb?
This mountain’s so grey I’m only climbing this high
Cause I hope that up there I’ll find
Hollywood hills and spotlights

You can rain if you want to
Cuz I´m only passing by
I know where I’m going
To a California sunrise

I’m going somewhere slow
And I can’t wait to get there
And see the sunrise
Who says that it’s about the climb?
This mountain’s so grey I’m only climbing this high
Cause I hope that up there I’ll find
Star studded streets, and that big white sign
Santa Monica Pier, sunset and vine
Hollywood hills and spotlights

Great writing. It reads to me like a person trying to get away from their past which is a very interesting topic.

My two favorite parts of your song are:

I like to take the back roads
Though I’ve got somewhere to go
Think I’ll turn off the radio
And listen to my soul
Cuz they don’t play the songs I know

It’s a stormy picture
looking in the rear-view mirror
(that metaphor is awesome)

If/when you record this let us know as it would be cool to hear it. Nice job!

I love all of your songs and this makes no exception . Very beautiful, and the first part is my favorite

Thankyou so much!
