I was waiting for a cross-town train
In the london underground when it struck me
That i've been waiting since birth to find a love
That would look and sound like a movie

So i changed my plans, i rented a camera
And a van and then i called you
"i need you to pretend that we are in love again"
And you agreed to

I want so badly to believe that
There is truth, that love is real
And i want life in every word
To the extent that it's absurd

I greased the lens and framed the shot
Using a friend as my stand-in
The script it called for rain
But it was clear that day so we faked it

The marker snapped and i yelled
"quiet on the set" and then called "action"
And i kissed you in a style
That clark gable would have admired
(i thought it classic)

I want so badly to believe that
There is truth, that love is real
And i want life in every word
To the extent that it's absurd

I know you're wise beyond your years
But do you ever get the feel that
Your perfect verse is just a lie you tell yourself
To help you get by?
