Tell Me It's Not True

Tell me it's not true
 Say it's just a story
 Something on the news
 Tell me it's not true
 Though it's here before me
 And say it's just a dream
 Say it's just a scene
 From an old movie of years ago
 From an old movie with Marilyn Monroe
 Say it's just some clowns
 Two players in the limelight
 Bring the curtain down
 Say it's just two clowns
 Who couldn't get their lines right
 And say it's just a show on the radio
 That we can turn over and start again
 That we can turn over, it's only a game, Won't you tell me it's not true
 Say I only dreamed it
 Morning will come soon
 And say it's just pretend
 Say it's just the end
 Of an old movie from years ago
 From an old movie with Marilyn Monroe
 Tell me, won't you tell me it's not true
 Say you didn't mean it
 Say it's just pretend
 Say it's just the end of an old movie from years ago
 From an old movie with Marilyn Monroe
 Say it's just a story
 Something on the news
