[Verse 1]
Out of focus, didn't take a second to notice
Now we're separated by oceans, vast
Couldn't make this last
[Pre-Chorus]
I wish I'd have stayed
'Cause love can find a way to make your feet run heavy
Make your heart unsteady
Then it breaks, so I'm prayin' that you're feelin' the same
[Chorus]
You know I spent some time in Hollywood tryin' to find
Somethin' to get the thought of you and I off my mind
So tell me honey, oh, when you're just a step away from fallin' apart
Do you ever feel like goin' back to the start?
[Verse 2]
All the streetlights illuminate what home used to feel like
And when I get to thinkin', can't sleep at night
No, I don't feel right
[Pre-Chorus]
I wish I'd have stayed
'Cause love can find a way to make your feet run heavy
Make your heart unsteady
Then it breaks, so I'm prayin' that you're feelin' the same
[Chorus]
You know I spent some time in Hollywood tryin' to find
Somethin' to get the thought of you and I off my mind
So tell me honey, oh, when you're just a step away from fallin' apart
Do you ever feel like goin' back to the start?
Oh, and you know I would if I could
Maybe I spend more time in Hollywood than I should
So tell me honey, oh, when you're just a step away from fallin' apart
Do you ever feel like goin' back to the start?
[Bridge]
If you can hear me, does it really have to end?
I feel you close, although you're eight hours ahead
If we can pick it up, just tell me where and when
We'll go back to the start again
If you can hear me, does it really have to end?
I feel you close, although you're eight hours ahead
If we can pick it up, just tell me where and when
We'll go back to the start again
[Chorus]
You know I spent some time in Hollywood tryin' to find
(If you can hear me, does it really have to end?)
Somethin' to get the thought of you and I off my mind
(I feel you close, although you're eight hours ahead)
So tell me honey, oh, when you're just a step away from fallin' apart
(If we can pick it up, just tell me where and when)
Do you ever feel like goin' back?
You know I spent some time in Hollywood tryin' to find
Somethin' to get the thought of you and I off my mind
So tell me honey, oh, when you're just a step away from fallin' apart
Do you ever feel like goin' back to the start?
Oh, and you know I would if I could
Maybe I spend more time in Hollywood than I should
So tell me honey, oh, when you're just a step away from fallin' apart
Do you ever feel like goin' back to the start?
