How many of us wish we could turn back the clock
It's no good we know but we refused to take stock
Now you just look into the mirror at the image you mock
No miracle at the door where opportunity knocks,

Still I keep wishing for a Hollywood happy ending
Where the heartache begins to start mending
Where my conscience never needs any defending
Lord this promise that I keep sending,

Oh, I'll be a good boy I swear
No worse for all the wear
You might even say that I care
Even if I notice she has a nice pair,

I'm not asking for a rich bikini mistress with golden hair
Not asking for a pile of money that I won't have to share
Not asking for fame and glory that'll never be there
Just give me a Hollywood happy ending, is that fair?

Just get me out of this living nightmare
Need your super powers I can't find anyone who cares
Just one loving woman that I can trust
It's got to be real and not just lust,

Just one Hollywood happy ending
I know your ear drums I've been bending
I'll say another prayer upon knees I'll be bending
This request, oh Lord, I will be sending,

Oh, I'll be a good boy I swear
No worse for all the wear
You might even say that I care
Even if I notice she has a nice pair,

No hot blondes in Corvettes-not a good bet
Not looking for a four legged furry pet
Don't need a brand new silverware set
Just allow me to forget all those past regrets,

All I want for Christmas is a Hollywood happy ending
Instead all of these lonely nights I've been spending
Where wishes and reality just keep blending
Lord, I'll be good and be sure to say my blessings.
