he tries to play it safe
like he knows he should
but he lives inside his mind
and his heart's in hollywood
and she'll never know that every corner of his mind
holds a picture of her
so he won't forget
down into his heart
he's consumed with her like a parasite
looking for a host in him
and she'll never know
cos she's too far away
and he's still a boy
so he should just forget
holy mother of love
we exalt thee
unto you all praise
and we thank thee
and we'll live out each day to its fullest extent
it's just what we meant to do
from the start
