I'm learning to fly, but I ain't got wings...

 

 

She's a good girl, loves her mom and
Loves Jesus and America too
She's a good girl, crazy 'bout Elvis
Loves horses and her boyfriend too...

It's a long day living in Reseda
There's a freeway runnin' through the yard
And I'm a bad boy cause I don't even miss her
I'm a bad boy for breakin' her heart...

And I'm free, free fallin'
Yeah I'm free, free fallin'...

All the vampires walkin' through the valley
Move west down Ventura Boulevard
And all the bad boys are standing in the shadows
All the good girls are home with broken hearts...

And I'm free, free fallin'
Yeah I'm free, free fallin'
Free fallin', now I'm free fallin', now I'm
Free fallin', now I'm free fallin', now I'm...

I wanna glide down over Mulholland
I wanna write her name in the sky
Gonna free fall out into nothin'
Gonna leave this world for a while...

And I'm free, free fallin'
Yeah I'm free, free fallin'...

 

 

Eddie waited till he finished high school
He went to Hollywood, got a tattoo
He met a girl out there with a tattoo too
The future was wide open…

They moved into a place they both could afford
He found a nightclub he could work at the door
She had a guitar and she taught him some chords
The sky was the limit…

Into the great wide open,
Under them skies of blue
Out in the great wide open,
A rebel without a clue…

The papers said Ed always played from the heart
He got an agent and a roadie named Bart
They made a record and it went in the charts
The sky was the limit...

His leather jacket had chains that would jingle
They both met movie stars, partied and mingled
Their A&R man said "I don't hear a single"
The future was wide open...

Into the great wide open,
Under them skies of blue
Out in the great wide open,
A rebel without a clue...
