Not Like the Movies Lyrics

I love this song!

I think the lyrics mean that you should not have to second guess with love--it should be a sure thing. And if it's not all out "like the movies", then it's not worth it. You shouldn't settle.

I think I read in Seventeen magazine that his is about Travis McCoy and how it just wasn't how it should be.
