Widescreen — текст песни (Barbra Streisand)

There are songs that sound like movies

There are themes that fill the screen

There are lines I say that sound as if theyre written

There are looks I wear the theater should have seen

But though Ive 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 its always night

Notice how the screen is wide

The second role Ive 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 Ive 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?

Lifes a constant disappointment

When you live on celluloid

But my movie expectations are a dream I cant avoid

Waiting for a man to say the things

That I heard in the film last night

But he doesnt want to play the role

And he cant pick his cues up right

Will I dream? yes, I might!

Oh widescreen winding round my eyes

Blinding me with lies

Finding Ive been fooled by what Ive 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...
