She wants to live in and old Hollywood mansion
Feel the ghosts of dead movies stars
See the back of classic cars
She tired of playing the role
Of out of work actors

Maybe her friends were right all allong
Hollywood was wrong
She said LA be kind to me
I know it's to hard to accept me
But there's so many of us here
Who could use some of your emphaty

Los Angeles be gentle with me
Los Angeles be gentle with me

She was the saddest girl
To hold a Martini
She's laughing with tears in her eyes
Waiting on the big surprise
So L.A. be kind to her

She wants something more
Then what you've been giving
She's given up life
She's given up love
Open your arms for her

Los Angeles be gentle with me
Los Angeles be gentle with me
And I want to leave
But there's nowhere else I'd rather be
So Los Angeles be gentle with me

Los Angeles be gentle with me
Los Angeles be gentle with me
And I've got to leave you
I want to leave you
I want to go now
So Los Angeles be gentle with me
