Silent Movie
Ian Hunter · Other Songs - Ian Hunter
Well the school bell rings
I carried your things
Getting on the yellow bus
With the whole world watching us
And our love was like a silent movie
Ain't got nothing to say
Our love was like a silent movie
I wish we could have kept it that way
Now the door bell rings
I'm gonna get my things
Take another bright (? )
At the lion's side
Cause our love was like a silent movie
Ain't got nothing to say
Our love was like a silent movie
That's the all-american way
Silent movie
And our love was like a silent movie
There's nothing to say
Our love was like a silent movie
And that's the all-american way
And our love was like a silent movie
There's nothing to say
Our love was like a silent movie
I wish we could have kept it that way
Our love was like a silent movie
Silent movie
Our love was like a silent movie
I wish we could have kept it that way
