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)
