Lyrics Cinemascope - John Foxx

He walks into
He walks into the street
It's the city at night, he dissolves into the scene

There's a shadow room, somebody almost near
But she fades away just as he's fading through

There's a street of light
A long dark night
Restaurant scenes and dark machines
A woman in the shadow and a man in a suit
A cutaway shot of the avenue

So he stands by a rake as the camera pans across
Then he checks his watch, cause he feels like time has stopped
There's a street where they almost meet, this is the place
Then we come to the scene where we almost see her face
And the telephone rings
She swims in the lake, as the shadow on the wall in the final take
Cigarette smoke and somebody spoke
And the lights go up and the cinema's closed

So he plays the film, he plays the film again
So he plays the film, he plays the film again
