"Just Like The Movies" lyrics

I never wanted, I never wanted to know
Just what you wanted because it scared me the most
And I know that it meant that we were falling apart (falling apart)
So why did I bother even sticking around
After I knew that what's been lost can't be found
Cause I know the search party was only made up of one (made up of one)

So I'll go, I'll go, I hope you know

I'm better off now
See my name in shining lights across town
This city shines a little brighter
Now that you're not around
I don't mean to be hateful
I really hope you're happy
Because if it's not meant to be it won't be like they teach in the movies
Oh just like they teach in the movies

I always thought that we were Bonnie and Clyde
But I forgot that they both died early in life
So I guess you can say that I dodged the bullet this time (bullet this time)
So why am I bothered was it something you said
It's time to let go of all these thoughts in my head
Cause they're dragging me under and nobody's here to save me (here to save me)

So I'll go, I'll go, I hope you know

I'm better off now
See my name in shining lights across town
This city shines a little brighter
Now that you're not around
I don't mean to be hateful
I really hope you're happy
Because if it's not meant to be it won't be like they teach in the movies
Oh just like they teach in the movies

In the movies
In the movies
In the movies
