Our Song

by The Spill Canvas

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 want to 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 killin' time with you.
Butter knife's dull,
But it still cuts through.

We never were,
We'll never be,
Stranger kissin' in the pourin' rain.
Chasin' after your leavin' train.
But we know that's not how our song goes.
Oh, you're a waitress in a cocktail bar,
And I save you 'cause I'm a big rockstar.
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,
Stranger kissin' in the pourin' rain.
Chasin' after your leavin' train.
But we know that's not how our song goes.
Oh, you're a waitress in a cocktail bar,
And I save you 'cause 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 mysterous.
When you look at me with your cinematic eyes,
I want to play the part but I'm messin' up the lines.

We never were,
We'll never be,
Stranger kissin' in the pourin' rain.
Chasin' after your leavin' train.
But we know that's not how our song goes.
Oh, you're a waitress in a cocktail bar,
And I save you 'cause I'm a big rockstar.
But we know that's not how our song goes.

It goes like this...
It goes like this...
