Oh wake me please when this is over
Oh when the ice has melted away
And a hunger returns 
I will be the same, but older
And maybe twice the bear that I thought I was

Where have you been?
And what have you done?
I've been under the ground
Eating prayers from this old book 
I found under the ground
Saving it up and spending it all

On moving pictures, silent films
Moving pictures, silent films

Or, is this the dream I've been saving?
Oh, where the heart beats slower and slower?
To almost nothing, almost nothing, almost nothing

But I took you for love, or at least something beautiful
Out there in the spotlight

But turned around suddenly,
Turned around squinting.
Saw that it was headlights
And then the truth
The truth was unbearable
Oh, and imminent
Bearing down on
These two shadow animals
Caught painting the dotted line

Where have you been?
And what have you done?
I've been under the ground
Eating prayers from this old book 
I found under the ground
Saving it up and spending it all

On moving pictures, silent films
Moving pictures, silent films
