Tell me it's not true
Say it's just a story
Something on the news
Tell me it's not true
Though it's here before me
And say it's just a dream
Say it's just a scene
From an old movie of years ago
From an old movie with Marilyn Monroe
Say it's just some clowns
Two players in the limelight
Bring the curtain down
Say it's just two clowns
Who couldn't get their lines right
And say it's just a show on the radio
That we can turn over and start again
That we can turn over, it's only a game, Won't you tell me it's not true
Say I only dreamed it
Morning will come soon
And say it's just pretend
Say it's just the end
Of an old movie from years ago
From an old movie with Marilyn Monroe
Tell me, won't you tell me it's not true
Say you didn't mean it
Say it's just pretend
Say it's just the end of an old movie from years ago
From an old movie with Marilyn Monroe
Say it's just a story
Something on the news
