She's in a secondhand dress
Hair's all messed up from the 3 AM backseat sex
And she's driving west of Angels Crest
'Til there's nothing left
'Til there's no more city lights
Only pink skies
Tries to catch her breath on a cigarette
In the red Corvette she stole from her dad
If she's out of gas, she'll just dance for cash
'Til a businessman gets her just a couple miles
She looks into my eyes
Telling me hearts don't break in LA
Everyone's dancing to "Fade Away"
This ain't a place for a love song
'Cause all of the angels are long gone
And hearts don't break in LA
I went, "This was fun, we should do it again"
And she dropped me off close to where we met
She said, "Try your luck with some college brat"
Then she fixed her hair so I'd miss the crying eyes
She put it in drive
Telling me hearts don't break in LA
Everyone's dancing to "Fade Away"
This ain't a place for a love song
'Cause all of the angels are long gone
And hearts don't break in LA
It's better to run than to fall in LA
So you're telling me why we are not okay
This ain't a place for a love song
'Cause all of the angels are long gone
And hearts don't break in LA
She told me to wait, but I don't need a break from her
I'm 30 away 'cause I can't stay away from her
Told me to wait, but I was on the way up, I
I was on the way up, I
I swear I can't handle heartbreak
