And we're on the kitchen floor now
This is how it really starts
You raise your glass, it touches mine
Our lips too far apart
And you in your leather jacket
Laughing on the balcony
Me and my self-conscious feelings
They are just as drunk as me
I never was one of the pretty girls
With their carefree smiles and their wavy curls
I never was one of them
But can you please let me pretend
And we're dancing to a lie
We're not feeling twenty two
Getting lost behind closed doors
All that's left is me and you
And we're like a movie scene, but
The book was better
Just another story with no end
And the moment lasts forever
And I don't care about the pretty girls
With their nine inch nails, and their grandmas' pearls
But now I care 'bout me and you
I just want you to tell me that I look cool
Don't want to be like the pretty girls
With their empty eyes and their empty worlds
Just wrap me in your arms again
And I'll know just what to do
And we're on the kitchen floor now
This is how it really starts
You raise your glass, it touches mine
Our lips too far apart
I never was one of the pretty girls
With their carefree smiles and their wavy curls
I never was one of them
But can you please let me pretend
