If our lives were a movie
I'd know what to do
I'd write every scene with my heart

An archaeal picture that stars me and you
And this time I'd learn my part


I'd paint you some scenery
We'd sing, and we'd dance
From morning till late afternoon

And when that scene is done
Then I'd paint down the sun
And for you darling, I'll hang the moon


We'd wake up to sunshine
Like lights on a set

You'd reach out and there'd be my hand
All day there'd be music, a perfect duet
That flows from the white baby grand


At night when you're frightened
I'll play you to sleep

That melody from Clair de Lune
And to fill up the sky As the clouds, I would fly
And for you darling, I'll hang the moon


Hang the moon forever
So you'd never fear the darkness

The darkness I've known
Moon protect Norma Jean
So that she'll never be alone

Never alone

If our lives were a movie

Then you'd be the star
Cause now I know the role I should play
To applaud all you do

All the things that you are
And just be there on opening day


I know in the past
That the lines were all wrong
And the music was never in tune

But the wish that I make Is for just one more take
Because then darling I'll hang the moon


I'll hang the moon above you
So that you'll never fear the darkness
The darkness of night

Then you'll know I love you
Each time that you feel the light
Feel the light


If our lives were a movie
Then I'd cut away

All the moments when I wasn't there
The scenes that are happy
Are all that will stay

The rest will dissolve into air

As the final reel ends

We might both shed a tear
For the ending is coming out soon
But when the screen fades to black

We can smile and look back
And for you darling I'll hang the moon
