INTRO


I'm your average dreamer
I'm a true escapist
Always expecting a happy ending

Maybe I've been watching
Too many movies
Maybe I should grow up and stop pretending

When I saw your face though
Everything was slow-mo
And I started wondering why


CHORUS
Why can't it be
Just a pathway full of roses
Leading to a sunset view
With the one you've always dreamed of waits
Why can't it be
It was like a movie scene
The way I felt for you
Only you didn't fall
Now it's not like the movies at all


(Not like the movies at all)


Should I kept my heart shut
Should have been more patient
Should I kept an eye on my addiction

What was I expecting
Did I have a vision
Of a scene that only lived in fiction

Now I know that you are
Not gonna be my co-star
And it starts to wonder why


[Repeat CHORUS]


Ooh


[Repeat CHORUS]
[Repeat CHORUS except first line]


Ooh
Ooh
