RICHARD CURTIS
words and music by Celia Chavez
(c) 2015 Pequeña Maquina Music (ASCAP)

Oh, sweet beginnings
Happy endings and a soundtrack symphony
Richard Curtis, Richard Curtis
what have you done to me

Here comes our hero
Fascinated by the leading lady
Richard Curtis, is this actually
how love's supposed to be

Because somehow i've been getting my lines all wrong
Making entrances through all the wrong doors
I get your sense of romance
And the pacing's strong
But i don't know if i believe you anymore

One magic first kiss
Under falling snow on Christmas Day
But Mr. Curtis, won't you tell me
Why didn't he stay

<instrumental solo>

Oh the prince is always charming when the lights go down
But halfway through we stumble through our parts
There's always something missing in the dialogue
Even when we play it straight from the heart
Even when we play it straight from the heart

I know it's not hopeless
And I know you're telling me to have faith
It's a movie
It's a story
And stories can change

And so, Mr. Curtis
I'll give you one more chance to be redeemed
Mr. Curtis, Richard Curtis
go on make me believe
Give you one more chance now
go on make me believe

Babilonia is the reclaimed creative persona of singer Celia Chavez. This new 5-song EP is an expression of her tenacious faith in love as a solution, and -- the reason for the new moniker Babilonia -- my calling home of all the voices I have summoned in support of other artists over the past decade-plus. ... more
