Amy MacDonald – L.A. lyrics
[Verse 1]
Oh, here's a story bout a boy named J
Nothing he did would ever get in my way
But there's still a long, long way to go

[Verse 2]
I've only ever seen his face on film
I've only ever heard the lines he'd say
But still they won't, get in my way

[Chorus]
I'm always told to be the dreamer kind
Wake up one morning and your dreams are life
Never let them bring me down, never let them tear me down

I always thought that I would follow you
Every place and everything you do
But I'm happy to be by myself, I don't need no one else

[Verse 3]
He's never ever seen my face before
I'm trying hard cause this I can't ignore
But there's still a long, long way to go

[Chorus]
I'm always told to be the dreamer kind
Wake up one morning and your dreams are life
Never let them bring me down, never let them tear me down

I always thought that I would follow you
Every place and everything you do
But I'm happy to be by myself, I don't need no one else

[Bridge]
All my dreams are built around your face and this place
All the times I'm staring at the sun, you're the one
All my dreams are built around your face and this place
All the times I'm staring at the sun, you're the one

[Chorus]
I'm always told to be the dreamer kind
Wake up one morning and your dreams are life
Never let them bring me down, never let them tear me down

I always thought that I would follow you
Every place and everything you do
But I'm happy to be by myself, I don't need no one else

I'm always told to be the dreamer kind
Wake up one morning and your dreams are life
Never let them bring me down, never let them tear me down

I always thought that I would follow you
Every place and everything you do
But I'm happy to be by myself, I don't need no one else

    A girl likes a boy in the film, probably a celebrity who doesn't even know her. However, she still dreams of being with him. Since he doesn't even know her, the girl thinks it's fine because she's happy to be by herself anyway. She doesn't really need a boyfriend or something. At the same time, she still dreams on no matter what happens.

    This song describe those who are fans of celebritiy or those who like / love someone who doesn't even know them and probably will not even meet them again. However, they still dream to be with that person. In reality / their current real life, they don't really need to have a relationship / boy / girlfriend anyway. However, they still dream on. They have dreams in life and that makes their life richer & meaningful.
    (I'm like one of them too! I like this song, even though just I heard it an hour ago.)
