Memphis - In The Cinema Alone lyrics

rate me

I guess that we've been friends for a while now baby

Yeah, I would even ask you to my wedding day

We'll drink away the pain of the one you lost this time

But there's a few things that I have to say

I'm tired of seeing you buried in the twilight

Cradling your heart, watching people play

Am I ever gonna catch you in the early morning?

Are you ever gonna shine for us all someday?

Or will you spend your life in the cinema?

How do you sleep in the cinema alone?

Do you keep in touch with the one that killed you?

The one that made you start to dream your life away?

Get on the telephone and tell her you're alone

And if she doesn't take you back

It's gonna stay that way

There's nothing left to see in the final reel

I haven't seen the movie but I know the play

The lovers reunite, but it's not your face up there

The sky is bright, but it's not the way

That's just the cinema

Your love will die in the cinema

Alone.

So dream all you like

Dream all you like, you're gonna end up alone

Dream all you like, dream all you like

You're gonna end up all alone

Dream all you like, dream all you like

Cuz when it's lights up

You're alone
