Stars in the Movies

you used to mean
everything to me
we shared our drinks and dreams
we shared a place to sleep

it faded fast
it wasn't supposed to last
now I'm sick and sad
whenever I look back

how was I supposed to know
I couldn't let you go?

I just want you to be
like the boy on the TV
like the stars in the movies

this ride I'm on
feels like it's never-ending
if I don't wake up
and quit pretending

the slow decay
eventually goes away
but I remind myself
of your presence everyday

how was I supposed to know
I couldn't let you go?

I just want you to be
like the boy on the TV
like the stars in the movies


I just want you to be
like the boy on the TV

I just want you to be
like the stars in the movies

how was I supposed to know
I couldn't let you go?

I just want you to be
like the boy on the TV

I just want you to be
like the stars in the movies

I just want you to be
like the boy on the TV

I just want you to be
like the stars in the movies
