Seen This Movie Before


Casablanca
Gone with the Wind
I've seen this movie before,
and I know how it ends
First we start off slow,
then become Best Friends
That's when the Love Story begins
We have ourselves a True Romance
which brings us skin to skin
And the way we are now
is The Way We Were then

Deja vu
Double Indemnity
We created the Perfect Storm,
our love has no Misery
You're my African Queen
and I'm your Lion King
We're on a Streetcar Named Desire
that feels like a Ring of Fire

Key Largo
Kate & Leopold
This love was Too Hot to Handle,
but we couldn't let it go
We found a way to hold on tight
because we were both Spellbound
Now it's A Wonderful Life,
our love is such a Phenomenon

Boomerang
The Baker Boys
Steel Magnolias
Sophie's Choice
These are just a few
of the movies I see
whenever I'm loving you,
and you're loving me

A Star is Born
A Place in the Sun
The Best Years of Our Lives
Strawberry Blonde
These are just a few
of the many movie scenes
that always let me know
what our love truly means

Braveheart
Moonstruck
Pillow Talk
Notorious
These are just a few
of the movies I see,
once I fell in love with you,
and you fell in love with me

Love Jones
Cleopatra
Wuthering Heights
It Happened One Night
These are just a few
of the many movie scenes
I always see you
when I'm looking at the screen

Casablanca
Gone with the Wind
I've seen this movie before,
and I love how it ends

Ty, Alexis. I already had some more lyrics to it when I rushed out the first draft. I wanted PSoupers to have a little something. You really humble w/your words. Love you, lady. RW

You added quite a few, this love story could go on for eons! What, no Last Tango in Paris? :) I'm teasing, it's perfect just the way it is, but if you were so inclined...

When i first got an idea for this poem, Paloma, it was going through my mind as a song. I'm a songwriter too, so matching the words w/the music in my head made it real easy. Anywho ... just a peek under the hood at my creative process. Love and kisses. RW

Now, Rick, you know me so well, my Aussie brother. I do write lyrics for songs, and a lot of poems I think of w/music in my head. This was indeed one of those poems. Ty for the interest, my dear friend.
