Clark Gable lyrics
Song information
Artist: The Postal Service Album: Give Up
Lyrics
I was waiting for a cross-town train in the London underground when it struck me That I've been waiting since birth to find a Love that would look and sound like a movie So I changed my plans I rented a camera and A van and then I called you "I need you to pretend that we are in love Again." and you agreed too
I want so badly to believe that "there is truth That love is real" And I want life in every word to the extent That it's absurd
I greased the lens and framed the shot using A friend as my stand-in The script it called for rain but it was clear That day so we faked it The marker snapped and I yelled "quiet on The set" and then called "action!" And I kissed you in a style clark gable would Have admired (i thought it classic)
I want so badly to believe that "there is truth That love is real" And I want life in every word to the extent That it's absurd I know you're wise beyond your years, but Do you ever get the feel That your perfect verse is just a lie You tell yourself to help you get by
