Lyrics
[Verse 1]
The music begins and the titles fade in
Starring you and me
The hero is strugglin' to say
That his lady is far away
In her prison of wishes
[Verse 2]
We love and we fight but it's all day for night
Just a masquerade
We're real till the red light is off
Then we go take our faces off
Like two clowns in a sideshow
[Verse 3]
Love is like two dreamers dreaming
The exact same dream
Just another technicolor
Romance on the screen
[Verse 4]
Love is like two dreamers dreaming
The exact same dream
Just another technicolor
Romance on the screen
[Verse 5]
Keep you in frame and I whisper your name
Till the picture fades
The feeling is already gone
I don't know why I'm going on
Can't remember the ending
