The Ultimate Name the Movie Challenge

No dialogue this time, no description of the plot, no naming the characters this time. This time you will have a double challenge. I will give you a few lines of the song associated with the movie. From that you must name the movie. Good luck.


(1)
They all tried to tell me
But I guess I didn't care
I turned my back and
Left them standing there


(2)
Keys that jingle in your pocket
Words that jangle in your head
Why did summer go so quickly?
Was it something that I said?
Lovers walk along a shore
And leave their footprints in the sand


(3)
Is this a dream, am I here, where are you
What's in back of the sky, why do we cry


(4)
What's too painful to remember
We simply choose to forget.

(5)
So I was the one with all the glory,
while you were the one with all the strain.

(6)
Who's the cat that won't cop out
when there's danger all about

(7)
I ain't afraid a no ghost
If you're seein' things runnin' thru your head

(8)
I've hungered for your touch, a long, lonely time
Time goes by so slowly, and time can do so much

(9)
But just before the dawn
I awake and find you gone
I can't help it...I can't help it
If I cry

(10)
There's a red moon rising
On the cuyahoga river
Rolling into cleveland to the lake
