Lyrics
Silver Screen by Lou Lollio 1985
Her heart was pounding it sounded like a waterfall
Her head was spinning I was afraid that she might fall
Then suddenly she came around She looked at me and I could see
Was it just a girlish game or just another written scene
Chorus
They love you on the Silver Screen They love you on the silver Screen
Bridge
Silver Screen Silver Screen
And in the twilight just another shooting star
Or under bright lights just another curtain call
Was it just a girlish game or just another written scene
Or just another foolish plan or just another written scene
Chorus
Bridge
Her heart was pounding it sounded like a waterfall
Her head was spinning I was afraid that she might fall
Then suddenly she came around She looked at me and I could see
Was it just a girlish game or just another written scene
Chorus
Bridge
