Heroes And Ladies
Composer(s): Nanci Nevins
Performer(s): Sweetwater



Open a story book
Turn to the end
Almost always the hero and his lady
Live happily ever after again

Go to a movie and if you
stay to the end
almost always the hero and his lady
live happily ever after again

Chorus:
But we all can't be heroes and ladies
And the good guy can't always win
'Cuz life's not a book and love's not a movie
And we don't always stay to the end

Story books are make believe
Movies aren't real friends
Playing those parts for each other

Did we miss what might have been?

My heart says you're my dream man
I feel like your silver queen
Please don't tell me the ending
Let's just play the next scene

Chorus:

Now our movie is over
The lights are on again
Now this hero and his lady
Have faded away with the end

'Cuz we all can't be heroes and ladies
And the good guy can't always win
'Cuz life's not a book and love's not a movie...
We all can't be heroes and ladies
And the good guy can't always win
'Cuz life's not a book and love's not a movie
And we don't always stay to the end
You didn't stay to the end
To the end
