Lyrics
She’s always staring at her phone, tangled up in the web
When we’re together I\'m alone, thinking why do we feel so disconnected?
This isn’t what I imagined (when I was young)
Thought it’d be more cinematic
I wish we were classic, a little dramatic
Like falling in love with the girl next door
She’s off in her own world, I think she’s a mean girl
I wish she was more like Mandy Moore
She says I\'m hopelessly nostalgic, and half of my references don’t land
I thought we might’ve had that movie magic, but she only likes me for my band
I don’t think she wants a boyfriend (she’s not in love)
I think she just wants some content
I wish we were classic, a little dramatic
Like falling in love with the girl next door
She’s off in her own world, I think she’s a mean girl
I wish she was more like Mandy Moore
I wanna take it back to ’02
And get a temporary tattoo
With someone I can really talk to, yeah
I just want something real
Gimme all the little cliches, yeah
Making out on the driveway, yeah
Top 8 on your myspace, yeah
I just want something real
I wish we were classic, a little dramatic
Like falling in love with the girl next door
She’s off in her own world, I think she’s a mean girl
I wish she was more like Mandy Moore
(And I’m never gonna forget about her, I’ll always want a girl like that)
