[Blackmore/Glover/Powell] Gotta get a message through Cause I think I'm losing you Am I too late Drinking habit's a loose sometime I gotta know if you're still mine And I can't wait Last time I saw your face You tried to hide the tears But I could see the trace I'd be there if I could But it's so far away from home Lost in Hollywood In the dark the vultures wait I can hear them Knocking at my gate But I'm not here The brew was cold The meat is stale In the L.A. night the sirens wail The song you can feel Pale stars that never shine Scotch and the whiskey And the Rainbow local wine She's done more bad than good I gotta get away somehow Lost in Hollywood On the streets the sun is fine Don't you feel the advantage hit your mind Feels all right oh yeah But I'm a lover Like a loaded gun Chasing shadows on the run Out in the night I'm gonna lose control If I been losing you To pay for rock'n'roll Get back I know I should Gotta get back home to you You don't know what I been through But there's nothing I can do Lost in Hollywood
