Lyrics

(Source: as heard)

Yeah.
Yeah.
Why did we ever come so far?
I knew I'd seen it all before.
Tall buildings reach up in vain.
Tinseltown is in the rain.
I know now love was so exciting.
Tinseltown in the rain,
All men and women,
Here we are, caught up in this vague rhythm.
One day, this love will all blow over.
Time for leaving the parade.
Is there a place in this city,
A place to always feel this way?
And hey, there's a red car in the fountain.
Tinseltown in the rain,
All men and women,
Here we are, caught up in this vague rhythm
Tinseltown in the rain,
All men and women.
Here we are, caught up in this vague rhythm.
Do I love you?
Yes, I love you.
Will we always be happy-go-lucky?
Do I love you?
Yes, I love you,
But it's easy come, and it's easy go.
All this talking is only bravado.
Yeah,
Yeah.
Tinseltown in the rain,
All men and women.
Here we are, caught up in this vague rhythm.
Tinseltown in the rain,
All men and women.
Here we are, caught up in this vague rhythm.
Tinseltown is in the rain,
Tinseltown is in the rain,
Tinseltown is in the rain,
Tinseltown is in the rain,
Tinseltown in the rain,
All men and women, yeah,
Here we are, caught up in this vague rhythm.
Tinseltown in the rain,
All men and women, yeah,
Here we are, caught up in this vague rhythm.
