lyrics

Well, one false start and our life fell apart outside the cinema,
And the love that we shared simply ran out right there outside the cinema
I didn't want to see a film any way
So why'd you have to call me out this time of day
When I was starting on the minibar
You took me to the cinema in your car
You took me to the cinema

And the road that we ploughed simply ran out of ground outside the cinema
And the curse of these years well it brought me to tears outside the cinema
I didn't wanna see a movie that would confuse me
When my mind was on the brink you saw right through me
And it cut me like a scimitar
It ended at the cinema in your car
It ended at the cinema
I didn't wanna go out
But you took me by the scruff
I didn't wanna leave you, but this time I've had enough
Of all the petty little things that you say...yey, yey, yey

Well, one false start and our life fell apart outside the cinema,
And the love that we shared simply ran out right there outside the cinema,
I guess I knew it wouldn't last any way
Before this plate of nachos winds up in your face
You better put away your credit card
Let's end it at the cinema in your car
Let's end it at the cinema,

I didn't wanna go out, but you took me by the scruff
I didn't wanna leave you
But this time I've had enough
Of all the petty things you say
And the things that make me hate you even more
I think I'm going insane

Gotta get out of here
Get my life on track again
Get my life on track again
It's clear, I've gotta get off the wall
It ended at the cinema
It ended at the cinema in your car
