That Dude (in the movies)

from Germany Zulu by Joshua Starmer

/

lyrics

I wish I could talk like that dude in the movies
I would always know just want to say …. to you
A team of writers would perfect every sentence
and I’d always know just want to say …. to you

I wish I could drive like that dude in the movies
I would look into your eyes all the way... home
I wouldn’t need to steer, I’d hold both of your hands
and I would look into your eyes all the way... home

But I’m just me and I hope that’s good enough for you
‘Cause I’m just me and I pray that’s good enough for you
But I’m just me and I hope that’s good enough for you
‘Cause I’m just me and I pray that’s good enough for you

I wish I was cool like that dude in the movies
I would rescue you from harm all the time… check it out
I would have a black belt in every martial art
and I would rescue you from harm all the time… check it out

I wish I could dance like that dude in the movies
I’d be smooth and never step onto your toes... no way
I’d lift you up just like that scene with Patrick Swayze
I’d be smooth and never step onto your toes… no way

Lights shine on the silver screen
While you’re sitting next to me
