Låttexter: Thea Gilmore. Rules For Jokers. Movie Kisses.
Tell me, are you really leaving?
I fell so far, I'm almost on the ceiling
You said I've got a way with words
I'm not so sure but, baby, I know I got away with murder
So then, here we are full circle
And I'm tired of the romantic hard sell
You know those sentimental lines are where we went wrong
'Cos all those movie kisses just last too long
So let's push the curtains back
Lets give this love a heart attack
Now, babe, get out your theory
And we can explain away the mystery
'Cos you painted me in chromakey blue and kept me thin
So I would disappear when you put your landscape in
Guess, I had my red shoes on
So strike a match and lets move on
Here it is, the not so happy ending
We've done our picket fence defending
We did Bogart and Bacall
And now the spotlight's gone and anyway
All those movie kisses just last too long, yeah
All those movie kisses just last to long and
All those movie kisses just last too long
I fell so far, I'm almost on the ceiling
You said I've got a way with words
I'm not so sure but, baby, I know I got away with murder
So then, here we are full circle
And I'm tired of the romantic hard sell
You know those sentimental lines are where we went wrong
'Cos all those movie kisses just last too long
So let's push the curtains back
Lets give this love a heart attack
Now, babe, get out your theory
And we can explain away the mystery
'Cos you painted me in chromakey blue and kept me thin
So I would disappear when you put your landscape in
Guess, I had my red shoes on
So strike a match and lets move on
Here it is, the not so happy ending
We've done our picket fence defending
We did Bogart and Bacall
And now the spotlight's gone and anyway
All those movie kisses just last too long, yeah
All those movie kisses just last to long and
All those movie kisses just last too long
