V.1
Late night
Couldn't find any peace in bed
Thoughts of you - an all-night movie runnin' in my head
Bad scene
Don't recall what was said
or how we got to the place where all this has lead
Roll it back do another take
Change the lines before I wake
V.2
Toss and turn
Time for another reel
My words the same - but its not really how I feel
Cut and print
Must it always play out this way?
Lets try again in the light of another day
Roll it back do another take
Change the lines before I wake
Chorus I:
We played our parts too well
(In) a story (that was) far too sad to tell
Never stepped outside the roles
Never looked inside to each other's soul
We played our parts so well
(Lead break- bass)
V.3
Credits roll
But only two names appear
Who wrote our story is never really made quite clear
Love's the ink
With love we can rewrite our fate
Let it flow even though the hour is late
Roll it back do another take
Change the lines before I wake
Chorus II:
We played our parts so well
If we had something real, well who could tell?
Never dared to open that door
Left our best on the cutting room floor
We played our parts so well
(Outro)
