Tonight, I'll picture you and I,
When our love was as strong as the bright burning sun,
We held each others gaze for fun.


Then came the fights,
Then came the storms,

Their shadows cast beyond our own.
But you always took me too seriously,
I'll never forget what our love used to be.

The movies don't show what happens to love when love gets old
Yeah I tried, but I just can't let her go,
And the movies don't show what happens to love when love gets old


Tonight I'll drive across state lines
To deliver a message to lay at your feet,

To show you I'll love you,
But that we can't be more than we are.
We're trying too hard.

Your shoulder this burden for so long
But you never gave me the choice in the end
I hate to be selfish but this needs to end


Then came the fights
Then came the storms

Their shadows cast beyond our own
But you always took me too seriously
I'll never forget what our love used to be

The movies don't show what happens to love when love gets old
Yeah I tried, but I just can't let her go and
The movies don't show what happens to love when love gets old


We don't have to count our steps in the sand anymore
In the sand anymore

Just like in a photograph
Someday we'll look back, someday we'll look back


Then came the fights
Then came the storms
Their shadows cast beyond our own

But you always took me too seriously
I'll never forget what our love used to be
The movies don't show what happens to love when love gets old

Yeah I tried, but I just can't let her go and
The movies don't show what happens to love when love gets old
Whoa,

The movies don't show what happens to love when love gets old
The movies don't show what happens to love when love gets old
