Words and music by Nigel Clothier
|
For those people who only talk in film references
|
I’ll still see your tears when you go
Why leave when you wanna stay?
Having you here is important to me
Want you, whatever the cost
Sometimes it’s hard to be right
Don’t mix up short words and lies
I can’t get past these early hours
Images stuck in my mind
Marilyn, her skirts blown up
Kelly, his umbrella swaying
Newman on his bicycle
Lancaster, the waves
Taylor on a hot tin roof
Gable turns his back on Tara
Bogart wants that song again
Hepburn’s run away
You were all there at the time
You didn’t feel the wind breeze in
All of our shouts died in our throats
As our dreams fell apart
I’ll end up everyone’s friend
But I’ll be nobody’s love
Nothing to cling to but memories
Films that say how we feel
