Not Like The Movies

Verse 1

You said we were something, I believed it too

But your version of love didn’t feel like the truth

No dates, no time, just late night calls

You never really tried, you just wanted it all

I was dreaming in colors, you were black and white

I was thinking forever, you were one more night

Pre-Chorus

I wanted slow dancing, you wanted a room

I wanted a moment, you came way too soon

Chorus

It wasn’t like the movies, not how I dreamed

No flowers, no build-up, no in-between

You took that first kiss without even a sign

And called it love, but it didn’t feel right

Now I see clear, what I couldn’t before

You never wanted me… just something more

Verse 2

Graduation came, I thought things would change

Thought you’d show up, but you stayed the same

Promises, promises, all in the air

Every time I reached out, you weren’t there

Then you called me like nothing was wrong

Said you found your “true love” all along

Pre-Chorus

Talking ‘bout girls like I wasn’t one too

Funny how respect came when I didn’t choose you

Chorus

It wasn’t like the movies, not how I dreamed

No flowers, no build-up, no in-between

You took that first kiss without even a sign

And called it love, but it didn’t feel right

Now I see clear, what I couldn’t before

You never wanted me… just something more

Bridge (this is your power moment 🔥)

I thought I missed out, but I see it now

You were never the one I should’ve been about

You had your secrets, I kept my pride

And that’s the reason I’m sleeping fine

Outro

Yeah I wanted love like the movies do

But I’m glad my first wasn’t with you
