postal service - clark gable lyrics

Loading...

i was waiting for a cross-town train
on the london underground
when it struck me,
(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.
(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.
(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 then called “action”)

i kissed you in a style
clark gable would have admired,
i thought it cl-ssic.

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 fears
that your perfect verse is just a lie
you tell yourself to help you
get by?
