lyrics

Mulholland Drive

Her skin is taut, her eyes are dead she’s hearing voices inside her head
Her lover has left, she’s barely alive so tonight she will ride on Mulholland Drive
Tonight she will ride on Mulholland Drive.

Her Hollywood dreams were washed away and now those dreams in nightmares play
She’s done things just to survive so tonight she will ride on Mulholland Drive
Tonight she will ride on Mulholland Drive.

Chorus
Love is a bloody Valentine it will drag you down in time
Life is a bloody Valentine it will tear you down in time
It will tear you down in time.

Into the blue, into the black: her woman’s never coming back
She’s on run with nowhere to hide, so tonight she will ride on Mulholland Drive
Tonight she will ride on Mullholland Drive.

She once believed in Tinseltown but reality came to tear her dream down
There’s hate in her heart & murder in her eyes so tonight she will ride on Mulholland Drive
Tonight she will ride on Mulholland Drive.

Chorus

She’s tired & worn, her gaze is bleak she’s wired with scorn, too tired to speak
Now her soul is dark, her pride deprived so tonight she will ride on Mulholland Drive
Tonight she will ride on Mulholland Drive.

(Instrumental)

Chorus

And so it was & so it goes why love dies just no-one knows
Her heart was slain but not by knives so tonight she will ride on Mulholland Drive
Tonight she will ride on Mulholland Drive
Tonight she will ride on Mulholland Drive
Tonight she will ride on Mulholland Drive.
