Be kind when you rewind the story how the two of us
Sometimes you wish it was a little more mysterious
When you look at me with your cinematic eyes
I wanna play the part but I forget the lines

I do it all the time
I never get it right

One day when you replay the slide show we know
Pictures won`t show villains and heroes
It`s just me keeping time with you
Butter knife`s dull but it still cuts through

We never were
We`ll never be

Strangers kissing in the pouring rain
Chasing after your leaving train
But we know that`s not how our song goes, oh

You`re a waitress in a c**ktail bar
And I`ll save you `cause I`m a big rock star
But we know that`s not how our song goes
It goes like this

You didn`t like my friends and your mom didn`t trust me
I thought I was slick but my moves were rusty
Bought you a 12 pack, promised you Sushi
Sorry if I wasn`t straight out of a movie

We never were
We`ll never be

Strangers kissing in the pouring rain
Chasing after your leaving train
But we know that`s not how our song goes, oh

You`re a waitress in a c**ktail bar
And I`ll save you `cause I`m a big rock star
But we know that`s not how our song goes
It

Be kind when you rewind the story of the two of us
Sometimes you wish it was a little more mysterious
When you look at me with your cinematic eyes
I wanna play the part but I`m messing up the lines

We never were
We`ll never be

Strangers kissing in the pouring rain
Chasing after your leaving train
But we know that`s not how our song goes, oh

You`re a waitress in a c**ktail bar
And I`ll save you `cause I`m a big rock star
But we know that`s not how our song goes
It goes like this, it goes like this
