Widescreen Lyrics - 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 they're written 

There are looks I wear the theater should have seen 

But though I've 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 it's always night 

Notice how the screen is wide 

The second role I've 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 I've 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

HOT SONG: Camila Cabello - 'Liar' - LYRICS 

LATEST SONG: Charlie Puth - 'Mother' - LYRICS 

When we start loving? 

Do we move just like slow motion 

On the screen? 

Life's a constant disappointment 

When you live on celluloid 

But my movie expectations are a dream I can't avoid 

Waiting for a man to say the things 

That I heard in the film last night 

But he doesn't want to play the role 

And he can't pick his cues up right 

Will I dream? yes, I might! 

Oh widescreen winding round my eyes 

Blinding me with lies 

Finding I've been fooled by what I've 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...
