Stella, This Ain't Hollywood - 1980




This Ain't Hollywood

This ain't Hollywood - © 1980

You went off to actor's school
They taught you how to act real cool
They showed you how to laugh your way through tears

But we don't need your autograph
Around here, you're just plain riffraff
Stella, you don't need your makeup here

Stella, this ain't hollywood (this ain't hollywood)
You're not on the network news (this ain't hollywood)
This is gonna be your last review

Your life was never cruel or hard
This ain't Wilshire boulevard
This is gonna be your final play

Around here, you're no superstar
There's no place to park your car
So you can throw your credit cards away
Stella, this ain't hollywood (this ain't hollywood)
This ain't the nationwide TV (this ain't hollywood)
This is your eternal destiny

Stella, this ain't hollywood (this ain't hollywood)
You're not on the network news (this ain't hollywood)
This is gonna be your last review

Stella, this ain't hollywood (this ain't hollywood)
You're not on the network news (this ain't hollywood)
This is gonna be your last review

Stella, this ain't hollywood (this ain't hollywood)
You're not on the network news (this ain't hollywood)
This is gonna be your last review

When He comes back

This ain't Hollywood - © 1980

Last time He came, He was called a fool
He didn't look real tough, He didn't dress real cool
Last time He came, they pushed Him around
When the Lord gets back, they'd best be out of town

We'll be changed when Jesus comes back (when Jesus comes back)
Rearranged when Jesus comes back (when Jesus comes back)
No more pain when Jesus comes back
When He comes back (we'll be changed)

Last time He came, to save the lost
They crowned Him with thorns, put Him on a cross
When He comes back, you'll need a place to hide
You'd best be sure that you're on His side

(When Jesus comes back) We'll be changed when Jesus comes back (when Jesus comes back)
Rearranged when Jesus comes back (when Jesus comes back)
No more pain when Jesus comes back
When He comes back (we'll be changed)

He spoke of love the last time He came
He calmed the seas and He healed the lame
Remember that kid from the manger's scene
When He comes back, He's gonna reign as King

(When Jesus comes back) We'll be changed when Jesus comes back (when Jesus comes back)
Rearranged when Jesus comes back (when Jesus comes back)
No more pain when Jesus comes back
When He comes back (we'll be changed)

(Comes back) we'll be changed
(When Hes comes back) rearranged
(When He comes back) no more pain
(Comes back) we'll be changed when Jesus
(When Hes comes back) rearranged
(When He comes back) no more pain
(Comes back) we'll be changed

You Give Me All

This ain't Hollywood - © 1980

OK, now stop !
Yesterday, when I was young, I learned to pray, but I did not kneel
I knew your rules, I read your Book, but my heart was cold as steel
And then I looked deep down your eyes
I saw the fire burn my disguise

Because You loved me You gave me all
(You gave me all) Anyone can give and I can't believe it
You gave me all (You gave me all) Anyone can give and I don't deserve it

You forgave all my pride, give my life and a change within
You bought my soul with a royal price
Gave me faith, I wanted to defend
Still I fall, 'cause I'm just a man
But I know that You understand
Because You loved me You gave me all
(You gave me all) Anyone can give and I can't believe it
You gave me all (You gave me all) Anyone can give and I don't deserve it

When I was young, You told me, son
You got a lesson got to learn
In this world, they said
A man can only take just what he earns
I grew up to find my heart had
Grown cold as a stone
Lord, I know that now
I'll never have to face this world alone

When I looked deep in your eyes
I saw the fire burn my disguise

Because You loved me You gave me all
(You gave me all) Anyone can give and I can't believe it
You gave me all (You gave me all) Anyone can give and I don't deserve it

(You gave me all) Anyone can give and I can't believe it
You gave me all (You gave me all) Anyone can give and I don't deserve it

(You gave me all) Anyone can give and I can't believe it
You gave me all (You gave me all) Anyone can give and I don't

Never be the same

This ain't Hollywood - © 1980

There is no rhyme, there is no reason
Black and white equals gray attire
No turning back, make your decision
Like fire and ice, it's your own desire

Never be the same
Walk through the door and your life will change
Oh, you're never gonna be the same
(Never be the same)

You frown and smile like Mona Lisa
It's on the fence that you take your seat
It's bittersweet that you believe in
Up in the air firmly prompt your feet

Never be the same
(Never be the same)
Walk through the door and your life will change
Oh, you're never gonna be the same
(Never be the same)
Never gonna be the same

You live your life on a spinning wheel
Round and round
(Round and round and round and round
And round and round and round and around)
When your turn ends and you know it real
You'll come down to the ground

You don't believe, you can't deny it
You're bound to lose when your worlds collide
(You're bound to lose)
To make no choice, that's your decision
Life in between isn't on both sides

Never be the same
(Never be the same)
Walk through the door and your life will change
(Never be the same)
Oh, you're never gonna be the same
Never be the same)
Never gonna be the same

All Night

This ain't Hollywood - © 1980

She wakes up in the early mornin'
Wipes the sleep from her eyes
It comes on without warnin'
She cries and cries
Ah, she cried all night
Ah, she cried all night

She looks up at the ceilin'
Ah, she thinks back at all he said
He said that all the feelings
For her were dead
Ah, that's all he said
That's all the man said

All night
All night
She cried all night long

Daddy said he was a loser
Ah, but how could she know
That he would lie and use her
She loved him so
Ah, she loved him so
She loved the man so

She stares out of the window
She stares at the telephone
She says a prayer, she whispers
God, let him home
I'm all alone
I'm all alone

All Night
All night
She cried all night long

She thinks back at all the good times
She wonders what went wrong
Ah, she cries, she cries
She cries all night
All night long
All night long

Love is all you need

This ain't Hollywood - © 1980

Alfie lost his job last night
Now he's down and out
Had a round with his old man
It was quite a bout
Got drunk and he ended up in an alley fight
Blades flashing like a neon sign in the moonlight

Take it from me
(Love is all, love is all you need)
Love is all you need
Take it from me
(Love is all, love is all you need)
Love is all you need
When you're down and you got no hope to carry on
There's someone who's always there you can lean on

On the street, a young girl waits
In the driving rain
She'll work anyone she can
Tell me, who's to blame
Daddy's rich and he gives her all she ever need
She don't care 'cause he's never there when her heart bleeds

Take it from me
(Love is all, love is all you need)
Love is all you need
Take it from me
(Love is all, love is all you need)
Love is all you need
When you're down and you have no hope to carry on
There's someone who is always there you can lean on

Take it from me, (take from me)
Love all you need (all you need)
Take it from me, (take from me)
Love all you need (all you need)
Love all you need (all you)
Love is all, love all you need, love all you need
Take it from me
Love is all, love all you need, love all you need

Take it from me
Love is all, love all you need, love all you need

Take it from me
Love is all, love is all...

Nobody Loves me (en duo avec Amy Grant)

This ain't Hollywood - © 1980

I've always know, it's no surprise
It's just my perk, it's made from showin'
Time after time I tried to disguise
That it's your love that keeps me going

When I find myself in doubt
Your love came and pulls me out
And when I turn away
You gave more and more love everyday, everyday

Nobody loves me like You, nobody loves me like You do
Nobody loves me like You, nobody loves me like You do
No one will ever love me the way you do
No one will ever love me the way you do

Nobody loves me like You, nobody loves me like You do
Nobody loves me like You, nobody loves me like You do
All of my life I needed you
Sometimes I know that I won't show it
I love you Lord, all that You do
I want the whole world to know it

When I find myself in doubt
Your love came and pulls me out
And when I turn away
You gave more and more love everyday, everyday

Nobody loves me like You, nobody loves me like You do
Nobody loves me like You, nobody loves me like You do
Nobody loves me like You, nobody loves me like You do
Nobody loves me like You, nobody loves me like You do
Nobody loves me like You, nobody loves me like You do
Nobody loves me like You, nobody loves me like You do
Nobody loves me like You, nobody loves me like You do
Nobody loves me like You, nobody loves me like You do

Light of the world

This ain't Hollywood - © 1980

Your Light conquered the darkness
Shattered the fortress that rules the night
Your Son, Light of the world
Dark lords of evil cringe at His sight
Now I live to give direction a mirror here, a mere reflection

Light of the world, (Light of the world) Light of the world, you're the Light of the world, (You're the Light)
Aaaah you're the Light of the world, (You're the Light)
Ah, the Son shine bright even in the night you're the Light of the world, (You're the Light)
(Light of the world) you're the Light (Light of the world)

Your love have open my eyes
Put light on my lies and revealed my sin
Your love have strenghten my soul
Turned sorrrow to hope and put peace within

Now I live to give direction a mirror here, a mere reflection

Light of the world, (Light of the world) Light of the world, you're the Light of the world, (You're the Light)
Aaaah you're the Light of the world, (You're the Light)
Ah, the Son shine bright even in the night you're the Light of the world, (You're the Light)
(Light of the world) you're the Light (Light of the world)

Light of the world, (Light of the world) Light of the world
you're the Light of the world, (You're the Light)
you're the Light of the world, (You're the Light)...

Over and over

This ain't Hollywood - © 1980

My heart cries out, Lord to be just like You
My fear and my doubt keep me for doing what I ought to
I can't believe it I did what I promised I would not
I wanted to turn my feet around
But I could not

Over and over,
I'm down on my knees for the same sins
Over and over,
Forgive me over and over again

Lord, do You hear me ? I just keep on calling
I'm down on my knees and, Lord, You know I'm fallin'
I am unfaithful, I can't be the same way two days
I've been grateful for the good things You bring my way

Over and over
I'm down on my knees for the same sins
Over and over
Forgive me over and over again
Ooh, over and over, over again

Over and over
Forgive me over and over
Over and over
I'm down on my knees for the same sins
Over and over
Forgive me over and over
Over and over
Forgive me over and over again

Over and over
Mmm, over and over
Over and over
Mmm, over and over
Forgive me over and over
Over and over
Forgive me over
Over and over
Over and over again
Over and over again
Over and over again

One step closer

This ain't Hollywood - © 1980

A small town preacher on the street tonight
He's got a loaded Bible in his hand
Aaah he's blessed in the gospel meeting in those parking lights
He's aiming at the promise land
There's a young man pushing the gospel plow
He carries his heart in his hand
Likes to save the world, don't know how, he's a patient man

And he's one step closer, closer to the promise land
Aaah he's one step closer, closer to the promise land
Walking in the master's plan
There's a missionary waging a holy war, in God's name He makes him stand
Aaaah Satan's on his trail, demons at his door, combat is hand to hand
And the theologian looks for the questions
He keeps his lamp burning bright
He's determined to see God's election if it takes all night

And he's one step closer, closer to the promise land
Aaah he's one step closer, closer to the promise land
Walking in the master's plan
And he's one step closer, closer to the promise land
Aaah he's one step closer, closer to the promise land
Walking in the master's plan
And he's one step closer, closer to the promise land
Aaah he's one step closer, closer to the promise land
Walking in the master's plan
One step closer, walking, walking, walking
