Lyrics
first verse:
i'll write the script if you'll be the girl who stars.
we'll rock the box office and i'll buy you a pink car.
we'll drive all night and hollywood will love you like i do.
and that's the way it should be.
i'll sing you songs if you'll be the words i say.
and if the notes i make tonight don't make you go away.
there's one more question i should ask before we flip the day.
and that question would be: will you please...
chorus:
dance with me/like they used to
in golden days and black & white movies.
time sits still/and i will, too
and don't forget/it only takes a minute.
if you'd like/then we'll take two.
i second-glanced the moment i noticed
your flowered dress and open shoes.
i should confess, but... no.
second verse:
i'll talk to you all night if you'll listen carefully.
and i'd ask you what you're thinking
but you're thinking about me.
i tripped so hard i dropped my breath.
but evidently that's the way it should be.
so that's our introduction/you can turn the first page.
a spark has been conducted/a ball was put in play.
the opening credits ended/the players set the stage.
and our show's beginning/so, please...
chorus (twice).
i should confess, but... okay.
