Today I went down to the movies
To see a script played out on screen
Watching the black and white pictures
Moving in sweet harmony
Fountains of blue and green color
Wrapped in a circular tube
Slowly start splotching the edges
A figure forms back in the view
And I start wondering
Whose feature I'm seeing
The sound that I hear in the scriptwriter's ear
Sings a soundtrack to light up the room
When the star of the show shows her beautiful glow
I'm the happiest co-star to you
Today I went down to the movies
To watch a life played out on screen
I thought it was mine I was viewing
Until you appeared next to me
Stealing the limelight with radiance so bright
I can't turn away from the plot
What happens next all in good time I guess
A thriller and romance in a melting pot
And I start realizing
Whose feature I'm seeing
The sound that I hear in the scriptwriter's ear
Sings a soundtrack to light up the room
When the star of the show shows her beautiful glow
I'm the happiest co-star to you
There's nothing better than playing out written words
That we're forming as we go
You take the lead I follow happily
Through this fairy tale that we're crafting
And I start realizing
It's our feature we're seeing
The sound that I hear in the scriptwriter's ear
Sings a soundtrack to light up the room
When the star of the show shows her beautiful glow
I'm the happiest co-star to you
Today I went down to the movies
To see a script played out on screen
Then you walked into the feature
A better film there couldn't be
