Lyrics of Matt Warfield – Silver Screen

He takes his whiskey like his marriage
On the rocks with a dash of bitters
He tells them to call him old fashioned
But darling don’t hold out the sugar

When they were kids they fell in love
Then the nights got cold and things got rough
She don’t even look at him the same
When they were kids they’d seen enough movies to believe
That it always would work out like it does on the silver screen

Been taking that same highway to work
That she took on her wedding day
But when she looks out that old mirror
She wonders why things ever had to change

When they were kids they fell in love
Then the nights got cold and things got rough
He don’t even look at her the same
When they were kids they’d seen enough movies to believe
That it always would work out like it does on the silver screen

They’re growing older, growing colder, they’re both too scared to walk away
It’s clearly over, she’s parked on the shoulder, cursing her wedding day

When we were kids we fell in love
Then the nights got cold and things got rough
She don’t even look at me the same
When they were kids they’d seen enough movies to believe
That it always would work out like it does on the silver screen
