Movie Star Songtext / Lyric

I shouldn't be here now, you know

This is not allowed

Someone's bound to see me here

Somebody's gonna find out



I don't wear my heart on my sleeve

And you hardly know who I am

Who knows just what this could have been

It was over before it began



If there was a film playing in my heart

Then you'd have been a movie star

Nobody else could have played your part

No, you'd have been a movie

You'd have been a movie star

That's what you are



I know how it works, I'll let it go

I'll let you drift out of my life

Too many things to take a chance on

There's too much to sacrifice






But I thank you for all you've been

However little it may seem

Believe me girl, it's no small deed

To raise a has-been's self esteem



If there was a film playing in my heart

Then you'd have been a movie star

Nobody else could have played your part

No, you'd have been a movie

You'd have been a movie star

That's what you are



No big silver screen

No award winning scene

Just a bittersweet ending

To what might have been

Ahhh

Yeah



So I'll let myself out

and I'll lock the door

I'm throwing away the key

Nothing is left but the memory

It will always belong to me

It will always belong to me
