Our Song Lyrics
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 forget the lines.
I do it all the time.
I never get it right.
One day when you would play
the slide show we know
pictures won't show villians and heroes.
It's just me
killing time with you.
Butterknife dull
but it still cuts through.
We never were.
We'll never be.
Strangers kissin' in the pouring rain.
Chasin' after your leaving train.
But we know that's not how our song goes.
You're a waitress in a cocktail bar.
And I save you cuz I'm a big rockstar.
But we know that's not how our song goes.
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 twelve pack
promised you sushi.
Sorry if I wasn't straight out of a movie.
We never were.
We'll never be.
Strangers kissin' in the pouring rain.
Chasin' after your leaving train.
But we know that's not how our song goes.
You're a waitress in a cocktail bar.
And I save you cuz I'm a big rockstar.
But we know that's not how our song goes.
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 messin up the lines.
We never were.
We'll never be.
Starangers kissin' in the pouring rain.
Chasin' after your leaving train.
But we know that's not how our song goes.
You're a waitress in a cocktail bar.
And I save you cuz I'm a big rockstar.
But we know that's not how our song goes.
It goes like this...
It goes like this...
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 forget the lines.
I never get it right.
the slide show we know
pictures won't show villians and heroes.
It's just me
killing time with you.
Butterknife dull
but it still cuts through.
We'll never be.
Chasin' after your leaving train.
But we know that's not how our song goes.
You're a waitress in a cocktail bar.
And I save you cuz I'm a big rockstar.
But we know that's not how our song goes.
and your mom didn't trust me.
I thought I was slick
but my moves were rusty.
Bought you a twelve pack
promised you sushi.
Sorry if I wasn't straight out of a movie.
We'll never be.
Chasin' after your leaving train.
But we know that's not how our song goes.
You're a waitress in a cocktail bar.

And I save you cuz I'm a big rockstar.
But we know that's not how our song goes.
It goes like this...

I Love this video and i love how its about they're love isn't perfect.
suchhhh a good song
I totally agree. It's catchy too. I have it atuck in my head all the time, but it's not annoying or anything. I love listening to it and rocking the f*** out like an idiot sometimes to it. :P The chorus is especially great, in my opinion.
Yeah, good song. Love isn't usually like the movies, but they seem pretty okay with that. It just won't get out of my head.

This song is so much fun, I love it! It's about how she wants their relationship to be like the movies and he wishes he could do that for her but he can't. That's just not who they are but I don't think he minds too much. =]
