Cinematic - Cool Hand Luke

The other night I had a dream

It unfolded to the silver screen

A tragic fire, some tears were shed

I woke to find our hero dead

And wonder, What if this was me?

If my life was cinematic

With a soundtrack so dramatic

You’d be the hero and You would save me

And it would have the sweetest ending

I want to live in such a way

That when I’m gone my friends would say

That if my life was turned to film

I’d be standing on a mountain shouting victory in the end

But in my heart I know it’s only true

If I’m supporting actor and the Oscar goes to You

If my life was cinematic

With a soundtrack so dramatic

You’d be the hero and You would save me

And it would have the sweetest ending

I don’t want to let You down

I want to make you proud

If anyone is watching me

I want to make it count for something

What if it ended here?

What if the credits rolled now?

What would the critics say?

Would it be the biggest let down?

If my life was cinematic

With a soundtrack so dramatic

You’d be the hero and You would save me

And it would have the sweetest ending

I just want to make you proud
