(Jack Hues)
In the heat of the day
Every time you go away
I have to piece my life together
Every time you`re away
In the heat of the day
In the dark of the night
Every time I turn the light
I feel that God is not in heaven
In the dark of the night
The dark of the night
I wonder why I live alone here
I wonder why we spend these nights together
Is this the room I`ll live my life forever
I wonder why in LA
To live and die in LA
I wonder why we waste our lives here
When we could run away to paradise
But I am held in some invisible vice
And I can`t get away
To live and die in LA
If I let myself go
And for where I just don`t know
I`d maybe hit some cold new river
That led out to the sea
An unknown sea
I`d either swim or I`d drown
Or just keep falling down and down
I think its that, that makes me quiver
Just to keep falling down
Down, down, down
I wonder why I live alone here
I wonder why we spend these nights together
Is this the way I`ll live my life forever
I wonder why in LA
To live and die in LA
In every word that you say
I feel my freedom slip away
I feel the bars come down around me
And I can`t get away
I can`t get away
I wonder why I live alone here
I wonder why we spend these nights together
Is this the room I`ll live my life forever
I wonder why in LA
To live and die in LA
I wonder why we waste our lives here
When we could run away to paradise
But I am held in some invisible vice
And I can`t get away
To live and die in LA
I can`t get away
To live and die in LA
I can`t get away
To live and die in LA
I can`t get away
To live and die in LA
I can`t get away
To live and die in LA
