Bobby Bare - I Can't Watch the Movie Anymore lyrics

rate me

(Jerry Foster - Bill Rice)

Sittin' on the back row of some ole picture show

There's no villian and no hero

I see life personified upon a silver screen

Then there's nothin' what does that mean.

I've seen love all crumpled up like some old popcorn box

Lyin' used and wasted on the floor

I know the way the story ends

And I can't watch the movie anymore.

I've seen men and women love then move across the stage changin' partners

What does that say

Lives and love get tangled up and someone has to go without a reason

Look what that does.

I've seen love just melt away like ice inside a cup

Without a taste of what it was before

I know the way the story ends

And I can't watch the movie anymore.

Everything in life is like a re-run

Who am I to orchestrate the score

I've seen enough and felt too much to see it all again

And I can't watch the movie anymore...
