This Only Happens in the Movies

Lyrics

This only happens in the movies Life's not this perfect off the screen Stars never gleam so bright And nights never seem so right Except in the movies that I've seen Fate doesn't work like in the movies Love never enters right on cue Strangers don't meet like this And get swept off their feet like this The way movies say they always do Somehow this moon is too enchanting Somehow this moment's too ideal Somehow this moonlight we're enthralled to Is all too unreal For this only happens in the movies So this can only be pretend But if this is my chance The prelude to a new romance Let's hope that it has a happy end A Hollywood, platinum, stardust, happy end
