Inside

[Verse 1: Bill Morrissey, Bill Morrissey & Suzanne Vega] This ain't Hollywood It never really gets that good Call it love if you think you should There’s no need to explain [Verse 2: Bill Morrissey] Tonight it's just you and me A furnished room, black and white TV The late movie runs 'til 3 Then it’s just you and me again [Verse 3: Bill Morrissey] There's no work, just a lot of talk I quit drinking, now I watch the clock I count the minutes in the dark 'Til the sun crawls up again [Chorus: Bill Morrissey & Suzanne Vega, Bill Morrissey] And you won't leave soon because I know You're just like me with no place to go And there's a love still here, no, nothing's died It just got hurt and buried deep inside [Verse 4: Bill Morrissey, Bill Morrissey & Suzanne Vega] No, this ain't Hollywood It ain’t Venice or Malibu It’s not the life I promised you When we set off years ago [Verse 5: Bill Morrissey] You're waitin’ tables from 1 to 9 I fill out forms and stand in line No work, just a waste of time And every day's the same [Violin Solo: Johnny Cunningham] [Verse 6: Bill Morrissey] You're home later each night, I see I fix dinner while you talk to me And then we wait for the late movie To take us away again [Chorus: Bill Morrissey & Suzanne Vega, Bill Morrissey] And you won't leave soon because I know You’re just like me with no place to go No place to go, it's just a matter of time You'll find somewhere, it's just a matter of time [Verse 1: Bill Morrissey, Bill Morrissey & Suzanne Vega] No, this ain't Hollywood It never really gets that good Call it love if you think you should No need to explain
