Kacey Musgraves Lyrics

"if this was a movie.."

Am I the stone in your pocket
That's weighing you down?
Or the face in your locket
That you wear all over town?
I'd be your silver lining
Not a cloud full of rain
And the music would rise up
When I said your name

If this was a movie
I'd be surprised
Hearing your car
Coming up the drive
And you'd run up the stairs
You'd hold my face
Say we're being stupid
And we'd fall back into place
If this was a movie
If this was a movie

If this was a movie
Love would be enough
To save us from the darkness
That's inside both of us
And we'd get away
And we'd be okay

If this was a movie
I'd be surprised
Hearing your car
Coming up the drive
Then you'd run up the stairs
You'd hold my face
Say we're being stupid
And we'd fall back into place
If this was a movie
But it's not a movie

Kacey Musgraves explained to Apple Music the inspiration behind "If This Was A Movie", "...things had just completely fallen apart in the relationship. And I remember thinking, 'Man, if this was a movie, it wouldn't be like this at all.' Like, I'd hear his car, he'd be running up the stairs and grabbing my face and say we're being stupid and we'd just go back to normal. And it's just not like that. I think I can be an idealist, like an optimist in relationships, but I also love logic. I do well with someone who can also recognize common sense and logic, and doesn't get, like, lost in, like, these lofty emotions."
