Love You Like the Movies - Anthem Lights

Friday night, date night

I say «Pick out what you like.»

I don’t care as long as you’re here

Surprise, surprise.

Ain’t that nice

Same old chick flick, Eighteenth time

You know the one with that guy

Half way through, look at you

Smiling like you always do

And I can’t help but just stare

'Cause suddenly, it hits me

As I watch you make believe

I want to make this your reality

And if you’ll be my leading lady

Even though I may look crazy

I’ll grab your hand, ask you to dance

In the middle of the street

Learn to sign, cheesy lines

Like «Baby, you complete me.»

And in case you forget

Where we’ve been and what we did

I’ll write it all down, read it out loud

Again and again

I promise if you let me

I’ll love you like the movies

Now I’ve never been

One of them

Guys who could be leading men

Just never seemed all that real

But here right now

With you somehow

The kind of love they write about

Is the kind of love that I’m starting to feel

So I grab your hand, ask you to dance

In the middle of the street

Learn to sign, cheesy lines

Like «Baby, you complete me.»

And in case you forget

Where we’ve been and what we did

I’ll write it all down, read it out loud

Again and again

I promise if you let me

I’ll love you like the movies

I’ll never let go, Jack.

I’ll never let go

If you’re a bird, I’m a bird

You had me at hello

Like Noah loved Allie

Like Harry loved Sally

Like Richard loved Julia

Like Tom loved Meg

And the way he loved that volleyball

The way Demi Moore loved that ghost.

The way Jack loved Rose

I’ll never let it go, never let it go

Never let it go!

I’ll never let go!

Uh, if you’ll be my leading lady

Even though I may look crazy

I grab your hand, ask you to dance

In the middle of the street

Learn to sign, cheesy lines

Like «Baby, you complete me.»

And in case you forget

Where we’ve been and what we did

I’ll write it all down, read it out loud

Again and again

Close your eyes, arms out wide

«I'm the king of the world.»

Carpet ride, starry nights

There’s no way I don’t kiss the girl

And in case you forget

Where we’ve been and what we did

I’ll write it all down, read it out loud

Again and again

I promise if you let me

I’ll love you like the movies
