lyrics

I heard you leave the room, I turned, it hurt that it didn't hurt
But I've searched, and there was nothing quite like falling
There was nothing quite like falling for you

I'm tired of statue love and heartache rough and you feel the same
But I'm kind of totally a little bit in love with your name
So I'll kiss your faceless cheek, my knees go weak and fuck I'm afraid
Just learn the words you're saying to me

When I marry you in movies
I'll love you on the screen
I'll kiss you in the theatre
Save the better seat for me
You pretend that you don't feel it
When you read all your reviews
But you’d hide away your real life
Just to play the ingenue

I’ll cry, I'm frightened for my daughter, scared for her sleep in life
I try, I take the better half of something, keep it in my imagination (playback)

I wanted you to care, I know you don't, I'm giving us life
My mind's projector, where I get to see your "missing me" smile
You always told me that you'd hold me, now I miss you like knives
There ain't a better role for me

So I'll marry you in movies
Our romance stays on film
Our future lives in promo
And that's all it ever will
Your lips give me a soundtrack
Your voice it eats up mine
There's no need for a damsel
Cause baby we'll be fine.

There's a girl outside the movie
And she has all the lines I need
She's everything, she knows that
But I can't redirect our scenes
Let me know when you're in London
I'll run with what we have
I wanna live like this forever
And die when it fades to black

You have my heart, you won the part, I knew you'd do this to me
Until our time, I'll wait in line to see you at the movies
