There’s a boy in a car
At the top of a hill looking down at la
He’s so close to the stars
There’s a boy in a car
At the top of a hill
Looking down at la
He’s so close to the stars

And the fires that start
That he feels far away
He thinks that there’s something
Something that he lost
He thinks there is love
He knows there is love
Holding him back

Are the ghosts of embarrassing memories
It’s in the air
It’s been holding me back
I can’t live this way

Hey
Hold on to me
Don’t say
It’s the end of me
I’m right here
I’m ready
I need this love

Hey
Hold on to me
Don’t say
It’s the end of me
I’m right here
I’m ready
I need this love

Then his eyes pull away from
The glow of the city at night (it’s
Alright, it’s alright)
From this place you can see
Through the fog to the beach and the
Heights (it’s alright, it’s alright)
There’s a girl in a room
There’s a boy in full bloom
I think they are loved
I know they are love

Holding it back
’Cause the notes in the last
Word you said to me are in the air
I wanna come back
To you
I can’t live this way

Hey
Hold on to me
Don’t say
It’s the end of me
I’m right here
I’m ready
I need this love
