歌詞
Hey Mom,
I’m writing from a rooftop view,
The sun sets over palm trees, pink painted hues,
The city shines like the stars above,
With the amazing stars that party below.
I walk the streets where dreams are born,
With every step, I feel a bit torn,
‘Cause in this chaos that’s so bright and loud,
I miss the quiet of our little town.
Oh, Hollywood’s a world away,
But I wish you could still see me today,
I’m chasing fame and fortune, but it’s just not the same,
Without you here, it feels like losing a game.
I know Dad's not here to see this show,
I wonder if he’d smile, if he’d know,
Would he be proud of the life I’ve made?
Or would he scold me and say I’ve lost my way?
I remember summer nights we’d sit and talk,
Dreaming big next to the hydrant on the sidewalk,
You taught me to reach for the stars,
But it’s hard to shine when you’re missing home this far.
Oh, Hollywood’s a world away,
But I wish you could still see me today,
I’m chasing fame and fortune, but it’s just not the same,
Without you here, it feels like losing a game.
And so I’ll write these letters, just to feel close,
Of all the sights of the city, it’s you I miss most,
Tell my brother that I love them, give him my best,
And know that in my heart, you’re the fans I miss.
The parties are wild, the nights are long,
But deep inside, I don’t feel I belong,
‘Cause every dream comes with a price,
And the cost of fame is a roll of the dice.
So here’s to you, mom, my shining light,
In the hollows of fame, you keep me right,
I carried your love wherever I roamed,
But Mom, I swear, I’m still coming home.
Oh, Hollywood’s a world away,
But I wish you could still see me today,
I’m chasing fame and fortune, but it’s just not the same,
Without you here, it feels like losing a game.
And Mom, I hope you understand,
If you come to this city, I’ll introduce the band,
And when you look up at the starry sky,
Just know that we’re still here, and everything's alright.
