Down to LA Lyrics by Saskia

2020

When he was a young boy
His mama and his papa
Told him a lie
They said
When you get older
Go look for love
It'll only bring you back joy

Ten years passed
His mama and his papa
Fell out of love
They said don't follow our path
Go look for love
So he hopped on a train
And went down to LA

Down to LA
Down to LA
Down to LA

The city of angels
He went searching
For an angel of his own
That's when he met him
Oh he was so perfect
He knew it was
Love at first sight

At first it was amazing
The warmth he felt
Running through his veins
He felt so happy
Until that one night
When the strike of his hand
Left nothing but pain

Three more months passed
He covered up bruises
With long sleeves and smiles
He said to himself
This has to be love
This must be what I deserve

And he said
Baby it won't happen again
Baby it won't happen again
Baby, darling, come back

And he screamed
Baby don't walk out again
Baby don't you leave again
Baby I just got a little angry again

But he ran
As the scary man shouted his name
He told himself he was to blame
He felt so ashamed

Took a plane to Georgia
Sat in the shade
Near his grandmas old home
Flew up to Portland
Just to say hi
To his old high school friends
See how much they've grown

A red eye to Alaska
He stepped off the plane
And into the snow
Rented up a car
And drove down the highway
Until he reached the edge of the earth

He stepped out
He shouted out into the sky
He screamed at the stars why, why
He cried and he wept and he lay in the snow alone

Northern lights shone
Down onto his body
Curled into a stone
The air around him foggy
Got back in the car
Drove down to the city
Sat down at the bar
Somebody called him pretty
