Paris, Texas You think your dreams will come true But your past will hurt you Tell you something new Pablo Neruda, he was your only friend Gave you something to hope for But disappeared in the end The man on the screen Appears with a light in his eye Look up on a dream His only chance is to try Or his heart will die I've seen to many movies My memory will always cry I wish you would ask me So I could decide You'll be here forever The bench will carry your name The boys next door will understand And live their lives in shame The man on the screen Appears with a light in his eye Look up on a dream His only chance is to try Or His heart will die
