Lulu

When the wonder is over
No more laugh lines to trace around my eyes
I see no way will I hold her
Like the cinema told me to try
Lulu when I look at you
I see no chance of pushing through
And I must be the one to say goodnight
For all our technicolor dreams
Our names aren't rolling down the screen
Some wishes made are wises left behind

She kissed me so sweetly
And she promised me nothing but sweetness to last
Now I'm seeing in color
Our film full of color now I'm striking that match
Lulu when I look at you
I see no chance of pushing through
And I must be the one to say goodnight
For all our technicolor dreams
Our names aren't rolling down the screen
Some wishes made are wises left behind
Never quite vivid enough dear
To ever have me stay
Would you write me in rainbow?
So when they read my name
They see me in color
Like you saw me every day
