The Corrs – Queen of Hollywood
The Corrs – Queen of Hollywood
She drove a long way through the nightFrom an urban neighborhoodShe left her mother in a fightFor a dream misunderstoodAnd her friends they talk on cornersThey could never comprehend
But there was always something differentIn the way she held a stareAnd the pictures that she paintedWere of glamour and of flairAnd her boyfriend though he loved herKnew he couldn’t quite fulfillHe could never meet her there
She’s never gonna be like the one beforeShe read it in her stars that there’s something moreNo matter what it takes, no matter how she breaksShe’ll be the Queen of Hollywood
And the cynics they will wonderWhat’s the difference with this dreamAnd the dreams of countless othersAll believing in TVThey see their handprints in a sidewalkFlashing cameras on the sceneAnd a shining limousine
She’s never gonna be like the one beforeShe read it in her stars that there’s something moreNo matter what it takes, no matter how she breaksShe’ll be the Queen of HollywoodShe’s believing in a dream(Queen of Hollywood)It’s a loaded fantasy, yeah, yeah, yeah…
Now her mother collects cut-outsAnd the pictures make her smileBut if she saw behind the curtainsIt could only make her cryShe’s got hand prints on her bodySad moonbeams in her eyesNot so innocent a child
She’s never gonna be like the one beforeShe read it in her stars that there’s something moreNo matter what it takes no matter how she breaksShe’ll be the Queen of Hollywood, (Queen of Hollywood)No she’s never gonna be like the one beforeShe read it in her stars that there’s something moreNo matter what it takes and even though she breaksShe’ll be the Queen of HollywoodShe’s the Queen of Hollywood…Queen of Hollywood, (Queen of Hollywood) andHer friends still talk On Corners, (Queen of Hollywood)Yeah yeah yeah-ie…She’s the Queen of Hollywood…Queen of Hollywood…
