First date at the movies
Everything went smoothly
Even kept our ticket stubs
We saw a rom-com
And you wore that gray top
Then our friend drove us home

(Watch)
The years go by
(Flash)
Before our eyes
Not all kodak moments
(What)
They don't advertise
(All)
The things required
To keep a love growing

I hate the fairytales
They just get my hopes up
Only to be let down
Stories are made up just to entertain us
But when we compare, we feel left out

Compliments are vital and compromise are crucial
Just a few things they don't teach
Always say I'm sorry
Even when it huirts me
Choosing between right or happy

I hate the fairytales
They just get my hopes up
Only to be let down
Stories are made up
Just to entertain us
But when we compare
We feel left out

I hate the fairytales
They just get my hopes up
Only to be let down
Stories are made up
Just to entertain us
But when we compare
We feel left out
