Seems like only yesterday
We were packing up a truck and moving to LA
We were both only 18
But for once things were looking up
Stars were in our reach
Hello LA, hello
There was the long drives of the 405
In search of the Sunset Strip
There was the bright lights
And the butterflies
The night of my first gig
Hello LA, hello
Things were harder than we planned
We were living day to day
I was having problems with the band
Stars were further than they seemed
We spent less time chasing dreams
More trying to make ends meet
Hello LA, hello
There was the long drives of the 405
In search of the Sunset Strip
There was the bright lights
And the butterflies
The night of my first gig
People who said we'd never last
A couple of dreamers going nowhere fast
We'll prove them wrong once we get to Hollywood
The cupboards were empty, the nights were long
What didn't kill us, only made us stronger
The sun always shines in LA
But when it rains it pours
And if things ever turn around
And these two lost angels
Are finally found
I'll make my name in this faceless town
And give my last unto you
I did it all, for you
There was the long drives of the 405
In search of the Sunset Strip
There was the bright lights
And the butterflies
The night of my first gig
Hello LA ,Hello
