Waltz for the Movies

Trapped in a small room
With walls dark and bare
The projector in glooming
The noise starts to wear
The memory takes flight
Back to glorious days
It's time to rewrite
All the posters so that they include - me

I play poker with Bogart and dance with Bacall
Learn Brando some tricks and ride with Tom Mix
Share Cubas with Groucho and dine Mrs Ball
I am standing the test of dating Mae West

Sail into the sunset of pirates and glory with Flynn
Search into the desert of hope with Dodge hero John Wayne

Say hello to my little friend
An offer you can't refuse
Here's looking at you, kid
You had me - at hello

The colors have faded
The voices are gone
The screen now is shaded
And left is their song

The heroes and villains
That raided and curied
Gone are the pilgrims
That taught me how to live in this world
