Lead Role

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I'm pressing play in my head

I see us walking on the boardwalk

Eyes are locked in, and I take your hand like this

Fade out to black the end

Bring the lights up

Is it still us or was everything you felt pretend?

'Cause I said it, 'cause I mean it

Does it mean that we can be that

Everything that I believe in, that I see in

When I look into your eyes and

Then I'm falling, there I go

And my emotion taking over

I don't know if I'm alone on my own

And feeling what I feel

Believing that it's real

I don't, don't need to know that

You've got someone else playing me and he's better

And if my part is solo and he takes the lead role

I don't need to know

Baby, just learn your lines

'Cause it's the sequel

And it will be full of making love, just you and I

'Cause I said it, 'cause I mean it

Does it mean that we can be that

Everything that I believe in, that I see in

When I look into your eyes and

Then I'm falling, there I go

And my emotion taking over

I don't know if I'm alone on my own

And feeling what I feel

Believing that it's real

I don't, don't need to know that

You've got someone else playing me and he's better

And if my part is solo and he takes the lead role

I don't need to know

But don't it make you feel right

When I'm kissing you and you hold tight?

I press rewind a thousand times in my head

And I wonder if you do too

But maybe, then again, it's best I leave it

I don't, don't need to know that

You've got someone else playing me and he's better

And if my part is solo and he takes the lead role

I don't need to know

Don't need to know that

You've got someone else playing me and he's better

And if my part is solo and he takes the lead role

I don't need to know
