Two Lost Angels Lyrics

Seems like only yesterday
We were packing up a truck and moving to LA
We were both only 18
But for once things were looking up
Stars were in our reach

Hello LA, hello

There was the long drives of the 405
In search of the Sunset Strip
There was the bright lights
And the butterflies
The night of my first gig


Hello LA, hello

Things were harder than we planned
We were living day to day
I was having problems with the band
Stars were further than they seemed
We spent less time chasing dreams
More trying to make ends meet

Hello LA, hello

There was the long drives of the 405
In search of the Sunset Strip
There was the bright lights
And the butterflies
The night of my first gig

People who said we'd never last
A couple of dreamers going nowhere fast
We'll prove them wrong once we get to Hollywood

The cupboards were empty, the nights were long
What didn't kill us, only made us stronger
The sun always shines in LA
But when it rains it pours

And if things ever turn around
And these two lost angels
Are finally found
I'll make my name in this faceless town
And give my last unto you
I did it all, for you

There was the long drives of the 405
In search of the Sunset Strip
There was the bright lights
And the butterflies
The night of my first gig

Hello LA, Hello

Seems like only yesterday
We were packing up a truck and moving to LA
We were both only 18
But for once things were looking up
Stars were in our reach

Franky Perez is a Cuban-American rock 'n' roller with a knack for honest and impassioned songwriting, a timeless sound and the kind of live show that buckles your knees. The Las Vegas native carries himself with the quiet pride of a self-made blue-collar worker, but under the bravado is a poignant and heartfelt storyteller. On his second release, My 4th of July, Perez combines good old-fashioned rock n roll with a little Latin soul. Reflecting on his own life, he creates anthems connecting with his audience through universal emotions and the struggles of the everyman in the characters of his songs; Perez is an American classic.
