Old Movies

Turn on the stereo loud, drown out the city

Lose ourselves inside these walls

They're not coming down

This a one-time ticket, I'll give you all I can

Nothing to hide, trust is alive, I'll lay it in your hands

Maybe I'll lock the day down, maybe I'll let you stay

We can turn on the TV, fall in the story

Holding the world away

Maybe this is a real thing, how it's supposed to be

Like Ava Gardner and Sinatra, love in the old movies

Love in the old movies

Love in the old movies

You in your rolled up jeans, you're busy making plans

I'm still stuck on square one, I hope you'll understand

Just let the moon move back, let's make our own endings

Move off the script, forget old habits

Colour the film we're in

Maybe I'll lock the day down, maybe I'll let you stay

We can turn on the TV, fall in the story

Holding the world away

Maybe this is a real thing, how it's supposed to be

Like Bergman and Bogart in Casablanca

Love in the old movies

Love in the old movies

Love in the old movies

There's a magic in the morning after, the way we were

The brief encounter

Maybe I'll lock the day down, maybe I'll let you stay

We can turn on the TV, fall in the story

Holding the world away

Maybe this is a real thing, how it's supposed to be

Like Ava Gardner and Sinatra, love in the old movies

Love in the old movies

Love in the old movies

Love in the old movies

Love in the old movies

Love in the old movies
