Music Video - TV screen lyrics

I saw you on the TV screen Or maybe that was just a dream You presence never makes much sense to me I try to find the words to say But you won't hear me anyway My voice is white noise dancing on the screen If I could only just pretend for once to say the things I mean I saw you in a picture book I had to take a second look I wish I had the attention span to read But then you turned and looked at me Your face was gone for me to see And everything's exactly what it seems If I could only just pretend for once to say the things I mean And maybe you could just pretend to understand the things I've seen And it feels just like letting go I saw you in a magazine It might have been a movie screen My minds been playing subtle tricks on me I'm close enough to touch you now But I can't do it anyhow You're better off remaining in my dreams We would stay awake for good
