I wrote the following lyrics back in September of 2013 for the new man in my life, and I intended to post them on Valentine's Day, but here they are, at last!
By the way, "rub" refers to a backrub, of course.
"Better Than The Movies" -
by Erica
My life with you
is better than the movies.
You know just what to do to move me.
You chase my face to tease me.
You love to rub and please me.
You get to me so deeply.
You get all of me.
Oh I love living with you in the moment.
Every second is a special event.
You know what makes me tick.
You're better than my favorite flick.
Breaking through my screens,
you know me behind the scenes,
all my nightmares and dreams.
So we're taking life slow
in our red jewel tintcoat Camaro,
driving down the road,
so many places still to go.
I'll be your Princess Charming.
I'll rescue you as you're rescuing me.
Oh we're taking life slowly,
turning dreams into reality.
Being with you is an adventure.
You're so silly yet mature.
You make me laugh,
you gain my trust,
each facet of ourselves discussed.
I know your deepest secrets.
I know your greatest regrets.
You know my love and longings,
and when I'm fearing endings,
you help me live frame by frame,
and I help you do the same.
So we're taking life slow
picnicking on our earth home
on our grass roof underneath the sky,
clouds above us floating by
and you're my Prince Charming.
I rescue you as you're rescuing me.
Oh we're taking life slowly,
turning dreams into reality.
You were afraid that your best years were in your past.
I was afraid to love again since I know nothing can last.
I offered you a reborn world of new experiences.
You offered me a chance to learn
how good lasting romance is
due to the synergy of you and me.
My life with you
is better than the movies.
Oh we're taking life slow
in our red jewel tintcoat Camaro
driving down the road,
so many places still to go
and you're my Prince Charming.
I rescue you as you're rescuing me.
Oh we're taking life slowly
and it's better than the movies,
my life with you is
better than the movies,
my life with you is
better than the movies,
better than the movies,
better than the movies,
better than the movies.
