Music And Lyrics Page #10

Synopsis: Cheery Alex Fletcher lives comfortably in Manhattan off the residuals from his 80's pop success and reprising his hits at school reunions, theme parks, and state fairs. But those gigs are declining, so he jumps at the chance to write a song and record it with reigning teen idol Cora Corman. Trouble is, he's good at melodies but needs a lyricist and has less than a week to finish. Enter Sophie Fisher, subbing for a friend who waters Alex's plants; she's a pretty good poet, quick witted, and could do it, if she'd agree. But there's some sort of shadow over her head that Alex may not be able to charm his way past. And what if they do get a song written, what then?

Mama says I can't, Daddy says I can

Nut now my body just wants to slam

Slam

Come to a concert, don't bring anything?

Alex, that song.

Yeah, l know. l'm sorry.

lt's the best l could do. You could fix it.

No. That song was dinner.

Mama says I can't, Daddy says I can

Thank you!

l want you to hear my new single.

Thank you!

''Way Back lnto Love,'' music and lyrics

by Sophie Fisher and Alex Fletcher.

What happened to steamy and sticky?

l explained to Cora that it violated

the very core of the lyric...

...and corrupted the purity of the song.

When that didn't work, l told her

it would help me win you back.

And that did it.

Turns out that although she thought

the Dalai Lama was, incredibly, a llama...

...she is, in fact, quite the romantic.

-Go. Go. Go.

-Okay, Mr. Fletcher.

Thank you.

Trapped in the past

I just can't seem to move on

I've been hiding all my hopes

And dreams away

Just in case I ever need 'em

Again someday

I've been setting aside time

To clear a little space

In the corners of my mind

All I wanna do

Is find a way back into love

I can't make it through

Without a way back into love

I've been watching

Nut the stars refuse to shine

I've been searching

Nut I just don't see the signs

I know that it's out there

There's gotta be something

For my soul somewhere

I've been looking for someone

To shed some light

Not somebody just to get me

Through the night

I could use some direction

And I'm open to your suggestions

All I wanna do

Is find a way back into love

I can't make it through

Without a way back into love

And if I open my heart to you

I'm hoping you'll show me what to do

And if you help me to start again

You know that I'll be there

For you in the end
