Lately, I've been watching shows to clear my head
Thinking back to movies that I've watched and stories that I've read
And when I see that picture-perfect couple on the screen
I can't help but think, "That should be you and me"
'Cause check it
I want you with me when the credits roll, fade to black
All the pieces in the score and you're my favorite track
You're the perfect line of dialogue, you're the killer shot, you're the whole entire plot
Whatcha say to that?
I won't let you be the one that got away
Audrey Hepburn, I can take you on a Roman holiday
Tell me what you want and I'll accommodate, I know we can make it
Like Sally in that diner, you won't never have to fake it
If you lie back and pose, we could be Jack and Rose
And I could etch a little sketch and show your lack of clothes
After that, we can go to town
The ship won't be the only thing that's going down
Oh, I'm falling for you
Like the boys in stories all do
I hope one day you
You will be falling for me too
I need that Sam and Diane, that Kevin and Winnie
I need that Cory and Topanga, that Lucy and Ricky
Maybe I don't have a shot, but I've been known to beat odds
I'd launch a thousand ships for you, I swear before the Greek gods
See, if you died young, I would travel down to Hades
I'd find the god of death and tell him, "Hey, you've got my lady"
And spit a verse or two to make him whimper like a baby
So he can let us bounce and we can live until we're eighty
I'm here to spit my conviction, 'cause what's the issue with wishing
That I could have the kind of love that is depicted in fiction?
Please don't laugh if this verse is wack
You got me feeling like I'm Cyrano de Bergerac
Tryna find the right words
I stammer like an amateur as you recite your lines in perfect iambic pentameter
Think of all that we could be if you would put that dude aside
Romeo and Juliet without the suicide
Oh, I'm falling for you
Like the boys in stories all do
I hope one day you
You will be falling for...
Oh, I'm falling for you
Like the boys in stories all do
I hope one day you
You will be falling for me too
