Hollywood Flashback
A Cinematic Love Tale: Hollywood Flashback by Amanda Lear
Lyrics
We met in a flashback
We encountered each other in a memory or reminiscent scene.
Starrin' only you
Focused solely on you.
A Hollywood flashback
A recollection with Hollywood aesthetics.
Made me feel so blue
This memory brought about feelings of sadness.
A Hollywood flashback
A nostalgic Hollywood memory shared between us.
Just the two of us
Just us two in this Hollywood memory.
And a movie soundtrack, make up
Accompanied by a movie soundtrack and makeup.
You looked so good in close up
You appeared exceptionally good in a close-up shot.
In Hollywood, in Hollywood
Referencing the glamorous environment of Hollywood.
You and me, like in a movie
We, like characters in a movie.
We used to love in slow motion
Our love unfolded in a deliberate slow motion.
In the golden sunset
In the beautiful sunset of a Hollywood film set.
Of a Hollywood, film set
Reflecting on the golden era of Hollywood.
You and me, like in a movie
Continuing the movie-like romance.
Blendin' actin' and clever lightin'
Blending acting skills with clever lighting.
Oscar winnin' performance
A performance worthy of winning an Oscar.
Almost a true romance
Almost a genuine romantic experience.
Celluloid darling
A beloved figure in the world of celluloid or film.
In an open car
In an open car, capturing the essence of fame.
Cameras are rolling
The cameras are recording our moments.
Sunset Boulevard
Referencing the iconic Sunset Boulevard.
A Hollywood flashback
A recurring memory in Hollywood's history.
Alive on the screen
Alive on the cinematic screen.
Love is like a flashback, a dream
Love is akin to a nostalgic memory, a dream.
For a lonely movie queen
For a lonely movie queen.
Throwin' you, in my arms
The act of embracing you was a carefully planned casting choice.
Was a touch, of clever casting
You and me, like in a movie
Continuing the narrative of us being like characters in a movie.
We both demanded top billing
Both of us insisted on top billing.
Me in my false eyelashes
I wore false eyelashes; you adorned a fake mustache.
You in your fake, moustache
Adding a touch of theatricality to our romance.
You and me, like in a movie
Reiterating the movie-like quality of our relationship.
We're kissing in Technicolor
Kissing scenes portrayed in vivid Technicolor.
Sleepin' in day for night
Sleeping during the day to create night scenes.
Make believe tears, and phony fights
Engaging in make-believe tears and staged fights.
We met in a Hollywood flashback...
Repeating the initial encounter in a Hollywood flashback.
