This Celluloid Dream

AFI – This Celluliod Dream


Calling tears from deep inside, oh, you're so exquisite
And in the mirror, all midnight eyes.
Oh, If I could remain, but it's just a visit. All midnight eyes
read "vacancy" twisted, twisting

To the lovely dancing lights, I beg "May I cut in?" but they never stop playing
"their song"
Of a joyous song they sing
I've heard whispers. On a freezing note, I resonate

Just like romantic verses
Just like a joyous end
Just like a memory: it twists me
Just like romantic verses
Just like a joyous end
it twists me

Chorus:
You land as lightly as the new snow
(Cinematic)
Onto the melting boy
(And melt away)
You light as gently, you're so
(Cinematic)
Bathed in your radiance I melt!

In the glitter in the dark, sunk into velvet
Praying this will never end
In the shadow of a star,
in static pallor
I realize I never began

Just like romantic verses…

All the colors upon leaving all will turn to grey
All the colors upon leaving all will turn to grey
(All grey!)
All the colors
(All grey!)
Upon leaving
(All grey!)
All will turn to grey
(All grey!)
All the colors
(All grey!)
Upon leaving
(All grey!)
All will turn to grey
{grey}

Chorus 2x
