Lyrics Anthem Lights – Love You Like The Movies

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.

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.
(«Well you’re like 5-6.» «So was Tom Cruise.» «True.»)
But here right now
With you somehow

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 («Whatcha gonna do?»)
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 («Twice!»)
Like Tom loved Meg
And the way he loved that volleyball («WILSON!»)
The way Demi Moore loved that ghost. («Weird.»)
The way Jack loved Rose («What?»)

I’ll never let it go, never let it go («Was he talking about a ghost?»)
Never let it go!
I’ll never let go!
(«Dude, you alright?» «I think so.»)

Uh, if you’ll be my leading lady
(«It just seemed like it hurt.»)
Even though I may look crazy
(«It’s very high.» «It did a little.»)
(«Key change?» «Nah, I don’t want to.»)
(«I feel like we should do a key chan-» «Okay.»)

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
(«Here’s looking at you kid.»)
(«Frankly my dear,»)
I’ll love you like the movies.
