Every Time I Press Rewind

i gaze upon you every day

and yet am denied your touch

but you don't know my wants and needs

or how they mean so much

i want as i watch in equal measure

this need for you i've come to treasure

you'll never know what you mean to me

i'll just bottle it up and leave it be

Ch.

i see you in the movies i see you in my mind

my fantasy becomes a reality every time i press rewind

but every time i press rewind i let in all the pain

you come to stay when i press play and break my heart again

every celluloid sliver brings me a part of you

every single thing i find every thing is you

every faded photograph every silver frame

every time i press rewind again again again

.

it's the end of the show and i cant let go

your presence fuels my day

i know exactly what you're thinking

and the words that you will say

thoughts of you consume my days

and in my dreams you taunt me at night

i think of all your different ways

as i dim the light

.

i find a seat and press rewind

and for a moment you're all mine

i would like to hold you for ever

not just ninety minutes at a time

the closest i ever get to you

is on the tv screen

everything you've got's a lot

and everything i've seen
