lyrics

chorus:
Imagine life were a silent movie
there’d be music all the time
life would be so uncomplicated
wouldn’t that just be divine

I’d be wearing gowns of velvet
satin, silk or other kind
dining with Mr. Chaplin
and having a grand ol' time

We’d bat eyelashes at each other
grin and look away so shy
no need for lengthy conversation
why ruin a perfectly good time

chorus

We’d run about chasing each other
with arms flailing around
hop into a moving vehicle
train, car, or caravan

And when the sun went down
we’d hang around, an underground
cabaret, sip cognac, sit on each other’s
laps and laugh the night away

chorus
Imagine life were a silent movie
there’d be music every second of
the day, life would be so much more
enjoyable wouldn’t you say

Imagine life were a silent movie
every musician would be fully
employed life is a silent movie
choose your soundtrack, leave
your inhibitions at the door.
