WIDESCREEN Lyrics

Artist: Barbra Streisand
Album: Lazy Afternoon

There are songs that sound like movies
There are themes that fill the screen
There are lines I say that sound as if theyâ‚¬â„¢re written
There are looks I wear the theater should have seen
But though Iâ‚¬â„¢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 itâ‚¬â„¢s always night
Notice how the screen is wide
The second role Iâ‚¬â„¢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 Iâ‚¬â„¢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?
Lifeâ‚¬â„¢s a constant disappointment
When you live on celluloid
But my movie expectations are a dream I canâ‚¬â„¢t avoid
Waiting for a man to say the things
That I heard in the film last night
But he doesnâ‚¬â„¢t want to play the role
And he canâ‚¬â„¢t pick his cues up right
Will I dream? Yes, I might!
Oh widescreen winding round my eyes
Blinding me with lies
Finding Iâ‚¬â„¢ve been fooled by what Iâ‚¬â„¢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...
