Lyrics
Girls on Film
(Duran Duran) ©
See them walking hand in hand across the bridge at midnight
Heads turning as the lights flashing out are so bright
Then walk right out to the fourline track
There's a camera rolling on her back on her back, on her back
And I sense the rhythm humming in a frenzy
All the way down her spine
Girls on film Girls on film Girls on film Girls on film
Lipstick cherry all over the lens as she's falling
In miles of sharp blue water coming in where she lies
The diving man's coming up for air
Cause the crowd all love pulling dollie by the hair, by the hair
And she wonders how she ever got here
As she goes under again
Girls on film Girls on film Girls on film Girls on film
Girls, girls girls girls
Wider baby smile you've just made a million
Fuses pumping live heat twisting out on a wire
Take one last glimpse into the night
I'm touching close i'm holding bright, holding tight
Give me shudders in a whisper take me high
Til' I'm shooting a star
Girls on film
Girls on film
Girls on film (Fleeting moments)
Girls on film
Girls on film (Wanna see them)
Girls on film
Girls on film (Wanna be them)
Girls on film
