Jude Law
I thought Jude Law had ruined love for me
Cause they wrote him too well in The Holiday
Didn't know what else to blame for my high expectations
So when anyone asked, that's what I'd say
And my parents are so in love it's disgusting
Had a meet cute at sleep away camp
Got engaged after only six months of dating
And have been obsessed with each other ever since
Assumed I was doomed from the very beginning
Perfectionist eldest who avoids falling and spinning
Into love like the plague
But you proved me wrong
What else can I say?
Every date I'd ever had was a rerun
Of some half-wit sit-com romance
As the laugh track would play over our busted cliches
I'd think, "Do I even stand a chance?"
But you burst into my life through the back door
Knocked every breath straight out of my chest
I am gasping but grinning, pessimism is splitting
You fill the pit the distrust left
Assumed I was doomed from the very beginning
A hypocrite romantic who avoids falling and spinning
Into love like the plague
But you proved me wrong
What else can I say?
Maybe this is the end
Roll the credits and then we'll get our moment off screen
The theater lights rise, we're alone for the first time
I guess it's just you and me
I guess it's just you and me
You and me
Assumed I was doomed from the very beginning
A now ex-nihilist who avoids falling and spinning
Into love like the plague
But you proved me wrong
What else can I say?
Cause they wrote him too well in The Holiday
Didn't know what else to blame for my high expectations
So when anyone asked, that's what I'd say
And my parents are so in love it's disgusting
Had a meet cute at sleep away camp
Got engaged after only six months of dating
And have been obsessed with each other ever since
Assumed I was doomed from the very beginning
Perfectionist eldest who avoids falling and spinning
Into love like the plague
But you proved me wrong
What else can I say?
Every date I'd ever had was a rerun
Of some half-wit sit-com romance
As the laugh track would play over our busted cliches
I'd think, "Do I even stand a chance?"
But you burst into my life through the back door
Knocked every breath straight out of my chest
I am gasping but grinning, pessimism is splitting
You fill the pit the distrust left
Assumed I was doomed from the very beginning
A hypocrite romantic who avoids falling and spinning
Into love like the plague
But you proved me wrong
What else can I say?
Maybe this is the end
Roll the credits and then we'll get our moment off screen
The theater lights rise, we're alone for the first time
I guess it's just you and me
I guess it's just you and me
You and me
Assumed I was doomed from the very beginning
A now ex-nihilist who avoids falling and spinning
Into love like the plague
But you proved me wrong
What else can I say?
