The film was coming to an end As the speckling camera panned Across oceans and birds Blades blowing in the wind Vera Lynn singing over The man that wasn't there Kissed my cheek and whispered gently "Is that what you have always wished for?" I glanced into his eyes Which also weren't there "Some people were only meant to dream" And as the instrumental began The screen faded to black

I glanced into his eyes Which also weren't there "Some people were only meant to dream" And as the instrumental began The screen faded to black
