From the Album: Raven Symone
She was a young girl 18
Addicted to the dreams of being on the big screen
Then late one night kissed her momma good bye
Took the keys to the car and drove off in the night
Slow down
Don’t be in a rush to leave
You’ll never get these days again
But she was blinded by
All the stars in her eyes
All she wanted was the
Hollywood life
It’s not what it always seems oh no
It’s the Hollywood life
The land of a million dreams oh oh
They follow the glow
But God only knows
What it will show to you
But when the sun goes down
You can almost hear the sounds of the broken dreams on the ground
She was raised in a small town
She’s been here for a year everybody’s losing weight now
Never called back home she’s embarrassed to go
She don’t eat, she don’t sleep
All she’s hearing is no
Slow down
She feels like there’s no place to go
There’s no one there to hold her close
So in comes the night
With the tears in her eyes
All she wanted was the
Chorus
All that she wanted was to live the life
Her mom got a call from her baby late one night
It was quiet on the other end of the phone
She told her baby please just come back home
Everything is gonna be alright
This time
Chorus 2x
