Songtekst
I`m in a movie where boy meets girl.
What happens to me in this brave new world?
Do I listen to my heart? Do I listen to my head?
Do I look at what I see, or remember what I read?
When I tell you how I feel do I wonder what I say?
Is there nothing we can do about it?
Anyone, anyone can be so hardhearted;
but everyone, still everybody
wants a happy ending.
La la la la la; la la la la la;
It`s not so easy, it`s eighty four now.
How tough must we be to ask for more, now?
Do I listen to my head? Do I listen to my heart?
Do I try to feel the same, as I do when we`re apart?
Do I think about the end when it`s only just the start?
Is there nothing we can do about it?
Anyone, anyone can be so hardhearted;
but everyone, still everybody
wants a happy ending.
I get so scared when I see
the evidence against our case.
Each movie so far this year
ends up with someone crying,
or even someone dying
