BORN OUT OF TIME
(Rick Springfield) |
I've seen all your movies at least three of four times
And have on my wall a large picture of you
But you were that pretty young star so long ago
I'm born out of time with you, what can I do
Maybe I'm silly to think we'd have made it
But what I'd have given to at least had a try
Oh take me back with you, nineteen thirty-nine
'Cos black and white movies are making me cry
And born out of time we slip hopelessly by
Sophia Loren, Brigitte Bardot, Jean Harlow
Marilyn Monroe and Marlene Dietrich
Oh Greta you're better than any I've seen
Yes you were a real beauty queen
Oh listen people, has it happened to you yet
The feeling that someone was born out of time
Do you love someone physically much too young for you
Either way it's a shame time was so cruel
But it's nice that that generally isn't the rule
Sophia Loren, Brigitte Bardot, Jean Harlow
Marilyn Monroe and Marlene Dietrich
Oh Greta you're better than any I've seen
Yes you were a real beauty queen
And Clark Gable's who I should have been
