Lyric Widescreen

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...
