[Intro: Women, Men & Both]
Ooh-ah, ooh-ah,
Ooh-ah, ooh-ah

[Verse 1]
It was a black night, cat night, hell of a night
To be at home alone
I headed for a singles bar
Planned to get stoned

[Pre-Chorus]
A sweet lady smiled, high on a stool, lookin' blue
Drinkin' wine, I asked for the time
She looked at me, I read her life in her eyes
And she said—

[Chorus]
Take me back to Hollywood
What's where dreams come true
Show me all the magic I used to know
Take me back to Hollywood, let a star shine through
Dance me back to hеaven—with you

[Interlude: Women & Men & Women]
Ooh-ah, ooh-ah
[Verse 3]
She wore a pink hat, shе had eyes of a cat
They lied about her age
I know I'd seen her face somewhere
High on a stage

[Pre-Chorus]
She lit up a king-size cigarette, slowly let
Out the smoke, gave me her coat
Sat by my side in silk and lace, full of grace
When she said—

[Chorus]
Take me back to Hollywood
What's where dreams come true
Show me all the magic I used to know
Take me back to Hollywood, let a star shine through
Dance me back to heaven—with you

[Pre-Chorus]
She gave me an old, so outta sight, black and white
Photograph, started to laugh
Paid for the drinks an' taxi fare, brushed her hair
Then she said—

[Chorus]
Take me back to Hollywood
That's where dreams come true
Show me all the magic I used to know
Take me back to Hollywood, let a star shine through
Dance me back to heaven—with you
