Clark Gable Lyrics

When it struck me that i've been waiting since birth to find

A love that would look and sound like a movie so i changed

My plans and rented a camera and a van and then i called you

"i need you to pretend that we are in love again" and you agreed to

I want so badly to believe that "there is truth, that love is real"

And i want life in every word to the extent that it's absurd

I greased the lens and framed the shot using a friend as my stand-in

The script it called for rain but it was clear that day so we faked it

The marker snapped and i yelled "quiet on the set"Postal Service - Clark Gable - http://motolyrics.com/postal-service/clark-gable-lyrics.html

And then called "action!"

And i kissed you in a stye that clark gable would have admired

(i thought it classic)

I want so badly to believe that "there is truth, that love is real"

And i want life in every word to the extent that it's absurd

I know you're wise beyond your years, but do you ever get the fear

That your perfect verse is just a lie you tell yourself to help you get by?
