lyrics

One scene, now cut
The camera points
A different direction
Curtain, not here
We can still bow
A standing ovation

Once you were the leading man and I the lady at your side
But fortunes change; the silver screen has died

Chorus:
I’ll never fall in love again
I’ll never fall in love again
I’ll never fall in love again
I wish this pain was killing me
I’ll never fall in love again
I’ll never fall in love again
I’ll never fall in love again, it’s true
There is a space between me and you

Once seen, now blind
The party is dead
No more champagne wishes
Concrete, worn shoes
An alleyway
At knifepoint and vicious

Time I was the glamour queen and you my one superhero
Will I be found? Will anybody know?

Chorus
