Alone in the Dark Songtext
von Danny O’Keefe

Alone in the dark with you
You never notice me
I′m not the hero up on the screen
I'm only someone you can′t really see
Not even a character actor
And never a leading man
Just a sentimental guy
Who's always your biggest fan
But if I could put my life on film
You would be the star


And the world would see my vision
Of how wonderful you are
I'd put you in the pictures
You′re always dreaming of
If I could make a movie of our love
But life isn′t perfectly scripted
And I can't make you speak the lines
Words I′ve said only to myself
Playing both parts far too many times
Real life turns into fiction

Trying to write what's wrong
Oh, why do we stay
Alone in the dark too long
If I could put my life on film
You would be the star
And the world would see my vision
Of how wonderful you are
I′d put you in the pictures
You're always dreaming of
If I could make a movie of our love

If I could make a movie of our love
