This is how it feels to be in love This is life from above There's no books anymore I'm bound to that summer Big box office hit Making love to a counterfeit Why did so many Get a rise out of me? I love the movies Some people feel what some people don't Some people-watch until they explode The meaning of life doesn't seem to shine like that screen Put me in a movie and everyone will know me You'll be the star you know you are The movies I watched when I was a kid The hopes and the dreams Don't give credit to the real things I love the movies I know the meaning I know the story I know the glory I love movies I wanna be in my own movie I wanna be I wanna be the star of mine Of my own, my own My own I wanna be the star I wanna be I wanna be the star of mine Of my own, my own My own I wanna be My, my own movie
