Lyrics

On a journey to the south side of Hollywood She dropped a coin in a wishing well Heard a rumour through the friend of a friend who was held in high esteem She dreamed a star on the walk of fame And promised herself one of her own But the tide kept changing and the wind kept blowing past the trees towards the way she came The road to the top became the steepest of hills Took away half of her pride Still the determination to succeed Left a mark on the silver screen Only when her life was over The masquerade began to fade like a shooting star An empty bottle on a four leaf clover That was the downfall Of a girl named Marilyn A trip down to the boulevard of dreams Where a million other faces filled the scene A lonely soul in the middle of nowhere yet those faces sadly made her who she's been The road to the top became the steepest of hills Took away half of her pride Still the determination to succeed Left a mark on the silver screen Only when her life was over The masquerade began to fade like a shooting star An empty bottle on a four leaf clover That was the downfall Of a girl named Marilyn On a journey to the Southside of Hollywood Heard a rumour through a friend She dreamed a star on the walk of fame Dropped a coin in a wishing well Only when her life was over The masquerade began to fade like a shooting star An empty bottle on a four leaf clover That was the downfall Of a girl named Marilyn A girl named Marilyn A girl named Marilyn A girl named Marilyn
