Lyrics Silver Screen - Jones, Blakey

Silver Screen

Do you ever wonder why people hurt
Why people lie?
Forgetting to be human
Lost 'til we die
I can tell the wood for the trees
In the city that never breathes
I can tell my wants from my needs
But I know I want more
And I keep it together, just enough to get by
I rehearse every line so it’s prefect from the outside
But I’m looking for love, love underneath
All of the words we choose to speak
I’m looking for love, love like on a silver screen
I wonder if love, love is looking for me
Do you ever want to say what you mean
Pack up and leave
'Cause you’re feeling like you’re wasting energy
When you know the shoe don’t fit
But you walk in it anyway
How they gonna find your heart when you’re so unkind to it
I’m gonna keep it together, just enough to get by
I can smile for a while but it’s only on the outside
But I’m looking for love, love underneath
All of the words we choose to speak
I’m looking for love, love like on a silver screen
I wonder if love, love is looking for me
I wanna say what I wanna say
I wanna do what I wanna do
Oh, but I feel vulnerable
Oh, I wanna say what I wanna say
Would it hurt if I tell the truth
Oh, is that so terrible
Ooh
But I’m looking for love, love underneath
All of the words we choose to speak
I’m looking for love, love like on a silver screen
I wonder if love, love is looking for me
