You're asking me why the stars never shine, here in L.A. If I knew somehow, I wouldn't tell no one I give you my heart, and I try to please everyone But you were caught in a lie, now it's time I find someone I need a lover to right my wrongs I need a new love to sing my songs I need a lover to bring me back to when I was young You're asking me why the stars never shine, here in L.A. I answer to you, the way that I do, everyday With a little smile, there's no need to say anything I gotta leave you alone, cause this ain't the life that is meant for me I need a lover to right my wrongs I need a new love to sing my songs I need a lover to bring me back to when I was young I need a long drive up and down the coast It's the freedom that I want most Cause sometimes I have to let go and get back to when I was young When I was young When I was young When I was young When I was young When I was young
