So I step inside
Pour a glass of wine
With a full glass and an empty heart
I search for something to occupy my mind

But you are in my head
Swimming forever in my head
Tangled in my dreams
Swimming forever

So listen to the radio (listen to the radio)
And all the songs we used to know, oh, oh
So listen to the radio (listen to the radio)
Remember where we used to go…

Now it’s morning light
And it’s cold outside
Caught up in a distant dream
I turn and think that you are by my side

So I leave my bed
And I try to dress
Wandering why my mind plays tricks
And fools me into thinking you are there

But you’re just in my head
Swimming forever in my head
Not lying in my bed
Just swimming forever

So listen to the radio (listen to the radio)
And all the songs we used to know, oh, oh
So listen to the radio (listen to the radio)
Remember where we used to go…

I listen to the radio (listen to the radio)
And all the songs we used to know, oh, oh
I listen to the radio (listen to the radio)
Remember where we used to go…

You are in my head
Swimming forever in my head
Tangled in my dreams
Swimming forever
(Swimming forever)
Swimming forever

So listen to the radio (listen to the radio)
And all the songs we used to know, oh, oh
So listen to the radio (listen to the radio)
Remember where we used to go…

I listen to the radio (listen to the radio)
And all the songs we used to know, oh, oh
I listen to the radio (listen to the radio)

Like a heartbeat drives you mad
In the stillness of remembering what you had
And what you lost

Yeah, thunder only happens when it’s raining
Players only love you when they’re playing
Yeah, women they will come and they will go
When the rain washes you clean you’ll know, you’ll know…

Now here I go again, I see the crystal visions
I keep my visions to myself
Well It’s only me that wants to wrap around your dreams and
Have you any dreams you’d like to sell
Dreams of loneliness

Like a heartbeat drives you mad
In the stillness of remembering what you had
(Drives you mad,) and what you lost, (remember what you had)

Thunder only happens when it’s raining
(Thunder only happens when it’s…)
Players only love you when they’re playing
(Players only love you when they’re…)
Yeah, women they will come and they will go, (they will go…)
When the rain washes you clean you’ll know…

Yeah, thunder only happens when it’s raining
(Thunder only happens when it’s…)
Players only love you when they’re playing
(Players only love you when they’re…)
Yeah, women they will come and they will go, (they will go…)
When the rain washes you clean you’ll know…

You’ll know, (the heartbeat drives you mad,) you’ll know, (remember what you had)
You’ll know…

[Fade out

But there was always something different
In the way she held a stare
And the pictures that she painted
Were of glamour and of flair
And her boyfriend though he loved her
Knew he couldn’t quite fulfill
He could never meet her there

She’s never gonna be like the one before
She read it in her stars that there’s something more
No matter what it takes, no matter how she breaks
She’ll be the Queen of Hollywood

And the cynics they will wonder
What’s the difference with this dream
And the dreams of countless others
All believing in TV
They see their handprints in a sidewalk
Flashing cameras on the scene
And a shining limousine

She’s never gonna be like the one before
She read it in her stars that there’s something more
No matter what it takes, no matter how she breaks
She’ll be the Queen of Hollywood
She’s believing in a dream
(Queen of Hollywood)
It’s a loaded fantasy, yeah, yeah, yeah…

Now her mother collects cut-outs
And the pictures make her smile
But if she saw behind the curtains
It could only make her cry
She’s got hand prints on her body
Sad moonbeams in her eyes
not so innocent a child

She’s never gonna be like the one before
She read it in her stars that there’s something more
No matter what it takes no matter how she breaks
She’ll be the Queen of Hollywood, (Queen of Hollywood)
No she’s never gonna be like the one before
She read it in her stars that there’s something more
No matter what it takes and even though she breaks
She’ll be the Queen of Hollywood
She’s the Queen of Hollywood…
Queen of Hollywood, (Queen of Hollywood) and
Her friends still talk On Corners, (Queen of Hollywood)
Yeah yeah yeah-ie…
She’s the Queen of Hollywood…
Queen of Hollywood…
