So I'll call you up,
"Get yourself on a plane and come meet me here in LA
I got a place to myself while the owners are away"
And we'll lie by the pool in Pacific heat
'Til we're both set free by the evening breeze
That saves us
And we'll both wash up,
Change and drive to the city for drink before the sun sets
I'll show you Hollywood at night and it's a sight you won't forget
And we'll laugh at the tourists like we're any less lost
We're both losing focus - don't know what the drinks cost
Can they save us?
And you'll say...
"One day I'll move out here with you
One day we'll build this little life of ours
One day we'll put the past behind us
And just follow our hearts
One day I'll be less distracted
One day it's all gonna settle down
One day I'm gonna mean it, baby
Some day it's all gonna settle down"
And we'll both pack up
Rent a little place on the west side of the city
That we can't afford but you always thought was pretty
I'll make shit for cash counting other people's fortunes
And dream of the stage and swear I can support us
But I can't save us
And I'll say
"One day we're gonna make it, baby
One day we'll get a house up in those hills
One day I'll be a big deal, honey
I promise you I will
One day I'll be less unlucky
One day it's all gonna even out
One day I'm gonna show you, baby
Someday it's all gonna even out"
