Sometimes life seems like a movie
Like I'm the protagonist so I know that I'm good
And in time I'll be shocked by the other characters
And what they could, what they could truly be
Well sometimes life seems like a calendar
Because the pages keep flipping on and on
And the days that go by brought a tear to our eyes
Thinking 'bout the feelings come and come
I swear I'll stay true and I will not budge
I guess that by now I've had a few years to judge
And I have seen couples fall in and fall out
All this cheatin' has gotta stop now
Sometimes life seems like a riddle
With an answer that is not funny
Because it's not soft or sweet
And it's only ironic how
It's all about it's about
The sex and money
I swear I'll stay true and I will not budge
I guess that by now I've had a few years to judge
And I have seen couples fall in and fall out
All this cheatin' has gotta stop now
Sometimes I wish life was a storybook
Because then I could flip to the end
And I'd know if you're true and if I can trust you
And if you are a true friend
Well sometimes life just seems so hard
Because you're looking back, stuck in the past
And you think about the things that came so far
And how in the end they don't last
I swear I'll stay true and I will not budge
I guess that by now I've had a few years to judge
And I have seen couples fall in and fall out
All this cheatin' has gotta stop now
