"Movie" lyrics
I used to lay awake in the middle of the night
Countin' my mistakes and thinkin' 'bout life
It's kind of like a movie how it all goes down
Just when things get gloomy, it starts to turn around
Ooh, what a journey this story is
So full of mysteries and plot twists
But I got a feelin' it will turn out in the end
'Cause some things you don't learn 'til you live a little bit
Who would have known the plot could get so high and low?
One moment it's warm, and in the next scene it's so cold
But now that I'm older, I can stand on the shoulders
Of my victories and mistakes and see the lovely movie that they make
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
My victories and mistakes, what a lovely movie that they make
I know that it ain't perfect, no story ever is
But I promise that it's worth it to wait until the end
'Cause what if the thing that broke you turns into the thing that grows you
And the lesson's hidden in between the lines?
Ooh, what a journey this story is
So full of mysteries and plot twists
But I got a feelin' it will turn out in the end
'Cause some things are better when they're out of our hands
Who would have known the plot could get so high and low?
One moment it's warm, and in the next scene it's so cold
But now that I'm older, I can stand on the shoulders
Of my victories and mistakes and see the lovely movie that they make
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
My victories and mistakes, what a lovely movie that they make
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Who would have known the plot could get so high and low?
One moment I'm scared, and in the next scene I'm so bold
But now that I'm older, I can stand on the shoulders
Of my victories and mistakes and see the lovely movie that they make
Who would have known the plot could get so high and low? (Ooh)
One moment it's warm, and in the next scene it's so cold (Ooh)
But now that I'm older, I can stand on the shoulders
Of my victories and mistakes and see the lovely movie that they make
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
My victories and mistakes, what a lovely movie that they make
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Countin' my mistakes and thinkin' 'bout life
It's kind of like a movie how it all goes down
Just when things get gloomy, it starts to turn around
Ooh, what a journey this story is
So full of mysteries and plot twists
But I got a feelin' it will turn out in the end
'Cause some things you don't learn 'til you live a little bit
Who would have known the plot could get so high and low?
One moment it's warm, and in the next scene it's so cold
But now that I'm older, I can stand on the shoulders
Of my victories and mistakes and see the lovely movie that they make
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
My victories and mistakes, what a lovely movie that they make
I know that it ain't perfect, no story ever is
But I promise that it's worth it to wait until the end
'Cause what if the thing that broke you turns into the thing that grows you
And the lesson's hidden in between the lines?
Ooh, what a journey this story is
