written by: Richard Marx Born and raised in the windy city I moved West to kickstart a dream What I found was a town without pity That'll chew you up and swallow you clean I'm amazed at the life I'm livin' Don't want to seem like I'm rockin' the boat But it ain't all about taking but giving I feel something tuggin' at my coat No one ever told me it would be like this That there'd be something called home That's too hard to miss I'm saying goodbye to the glamour Back to the old neighborhood All that I need is a place I can breathe I'm saying goodbye to Hollywood Done my time in the hoodoo jungle Tired of waking up in another man's dream I've got the ball and I ain't gonna fumble Gonna make a winner of this team All that ever mattered were the goals I chased Now I'm ready to run in the human race I'm saying goodbye to the glamour Life never tasted so good All that I need is a place I can breathe I'm saying goodbye to Hollywood Me and the Mrs. Done made up our minds Were gonna give our boys a little less sunshine Call it runnin' say what you like I've got my own definition of paradise I'd rather be knee deep in snow Than knee deep in jive I may be cold but my soul is alive I'm saying goodbye to the glamour Back to the old neighborhood All I need is a place I can breathe I'm saying goodbye to Hollywood |
