SILENT MOVIES
(Neil Sedaka/Howard Greenfield)
Funny
flashing faces flicker on the screen,
Images of yesterday from nineteen seventeen.
Keystone days of laughter,
A world
caught in its prime,
The apple of the camera's eye
Those little clicks of time.
Here comes Charlie, Buster and
Fatty too,
Laurel and Hardy, hello, how are you?
I can't hear your voices
But it's clear to me,
You prove
that there was once a time
When life was trouble-free.
World you're ever changing,
Stop and count 'til ten,
Remember
all the happy days and smile again.
World you're ever changing,
Stop and count 'til ten,
Remember all the happy days
and smile again
