lyrics

I can see right through it
Maybe it’s not there at all
I wish I could hear you
I guess it’s too late to call
But
I could take you out dancing
And we could find another dream
I would take you to the movies
And we could jump up on the screen

I’ll be Bogart
You’ll be Bacall
We'll cast their shadows on our bedroom wall

I’ll be Curtis
You’ll be Monroe
Flashes will follow us where ever we go

I can see the light
Flashing through the moving film
Time is hard enough to capture
Along with every little thrill
But
I could take you out dancing
We could find another dream
We could go to the movies

And jump up on the screen
I’ll be Bogart
You’ll be Bacall
We'll cast their shadows on our bedroom wall

I’ll be Curtis
You’ll be Monroe

I’ll be Gable you’ll be Leigh
Gone with the wind will never see

I’ll be Bogart
You’ll be Bacall
We'll cast their shadows on our bedroom wall
