Estrid Nyman - People in the Movies Lyrics

People run in circles
While they try to make amends
People talking shit about friends of friends
They're actors in your movie
They are playing major parts
But the lead role, which is yours
A delicate piece of art

The music keeps on playing
And the curtains are always closed
Nothing here to see except
A bunch of withered roses
Mirrors on the table
Tables in the bed
The beds are in the oven
And a war in your head

If I try too much
I'll let you down again
And if I try to hard
They'll let you drown with them
If you want me to
I'll always be your friend
I want the best for you
But this could be the end

So if you care for me
Care for me
Care as much as I do
Care for you
Care for you
Always, even when you're too blue
Then let me know

I've sat on all the benches in town
Sometimes, I'd lay down
I've sang about all the people that I know
I've cried tears and seen them snow

You told me things that I didn't wanna hear
You pushed me aside instead of holding me near
We have been at cemeteries and playgrounds
We've been around
We've been all around

If I try too much
I'll let you down again
And if I try to hard
They'll let you drown with them
So if you want me to
I'll always be your friend
I want the best for you
But this could be the end

If I try too hard
I'll let you down again
And if I try to much
They'll let you drown with them
So if you want me to
I'll always be your friend
I want the best for you
But this could be the end

So if you care for me
Care for me
Care as much as I do
Care for you
I care for you
Always, even when you're too blue
Then let me know
