These silent movies play through my aching mind:
Two teenagers in love, their naive hearts combined;
And chaotic heartbeats pick up speed and they race.
As smiles, real smiles, are glued to their face;
Baby, the soundtrack to this movie`s soft and slow,
Playing a melody that only we know;
A guitar strumming to the words that you said,
And all these midsummer eves play through my head.
Through it all, it was me and you; we held on,
And now I can`t help but notice that you`re gone.
These silent movies play through my aching mind:
Two teenagers in love, their naive hearts combined.
And chaotic heartbeats pick up speed and they race.
As smiles, real smiles, are glued to their face;
With words once said, now gone forever and lost,
I swear that I`ll get you back at any cost.
Polaroids are pasted over the walls of us,
But the edges are folding, turning to dust;
Because that`s what I am now, nothing to you,
I`m just a pile of dust that you swept right through,
And a goodbye would have been nice; I must admit,
But those hopes are high for one who can`t commit.
These silent movies play through my aching mind:
Two teenagers in love, their naive hearts combined.
Baby, the soundtrack to this movie`s soft and slow,
Playing a melody that only we know;
When two and two put together made one,
And I seen your smile beam brighter than the sun.
The stars in your baby blue`s took away my breath,
But now I lay here, waiting for a man named death;
I`ve got patience, I know he`s a midnight runner,
But dying in your arms was always way funner;
So for one more night, take me in your arms,
And sweep me away with your innocent charm;
These silent movies play through my aching mind:
Two teenagers in love, their naive hearts combined.
