Film Noir - Carly Simon

Got on in New Haven

Last car on the train.

Put my hat on the seat,

Wipe the tears from my eyes.

I watched my life go by,

Like a movie in my brain.

Scenes unreeling;

In a sceneless chain

On the window,

and a silver screen of rain!

And the opening title scroll,

and the score comes in and under.

And I'm in the starring role,

in a world of love-struck wonder;

It's a tale full of promise, about two crazy kids;

Falling in love, but in flashback.

And then the music,

that gorgeous music;

And I wake up,

Rattling down the railroad track.

He could be sweet,

But I stayed on guard.my

Just how good a liar

can a decent man be?

I always played my hand

Like I didn't have the cards.

Cause he held them all

So I could never see.

Yes, he played me for a fool,

and I agreed.

And the closing credits roll,

And the waves come in like thunder.

Cause the hero's lost control,

And I made a blunder.fatal

Just another sad story;

Two star-crossed kids,

Racing headlong up a cul-de-sac.

And then that music,

That mournful music.

And the train's disappearing

Down that railroad track.

And the long, slow dissolve,

As we fade to black.
