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