| There are songs that sound like movies
|
| There are themes that fill the screen
|
| There are lines i say that sound as if they’re written
|
| There are looks i wear the theater should have seen
|
| But though i’ve made my life a movie
|
| The matinee must end by five
|
| And i must stagger out into the blinding sunlight half alive
|
| Wishing i were back inside the picture show
|
| There where it’s always night
|
| Notice how the screen is wide
|
| The second role i’ve said around too tight
|
| Will i stay? |
| yes, i might
|
| Oh widescreen wider on my eyes
|
| Lie my mind with lies
|
| Find the world like nothing that i’ve seen
|
| Oh widescreen dreams are just my sighs
|
| As we walk from out the movie
|
| Are we acting out a scene
|
| Does the orchestra play chords
|
| When we start loving?
|
| Do we move just like slow motion
|
| On the screen?
|
| Life’s a constant disappointment
|
| When you live on celluloid
|
| But my movie expectations are a dream i can’t avoid
|
| Waiting for a man to say the things
|
| That i heard in the film last night
|
| But he doesn’t want to play the role
|
| And he can’t pick his cues up right
|
| Will i dream? |
| yes, i might!
|
| Oh widescreen winding round my eyes
|
| Blinding me with lies
|
| Finding i’ve been fooled by what i’ve seen
|
| No, widescreen dreams are more than you
|
| How can lies be true?
|
| All we have is life and mind
|
| And love we find with a friend
|
| Oh let the movie end… |
