It Happened in the Movies

Another single parent Friday night
I took the kids to see Harry Potter
We ran into one of their friends
And with them was their father
The kids all sat together
And left us the last two seats
When we reached for the popcorn
Our hands met and the moment was sweet
Chorus:
It happened in the movies
I was in a full blush
In a place full of noisy kids
There was only the two of us
In one fell swoop - I was thrown for a loop - yea, he sure was cute
It happened in the movies
He whispered in my ear
How he liked my perfume
I said his sons were well-behaved
Then winced - bet he think's I'm a loon
At the end of the credits
He said how about some pizza
As we both searched for our keys
I knew I'd found my Eureka
Chorus:
It happened in the movies
I was in a full blush
In a place full of noisy kids
There was only the two of us
In one fell swoop - I was thrown for a loop - yea, he sure was cute
It happened in the movies
Bridge:
I took one more look back at him
And I saw him slip a bill to his son
Then a high-five followed
I smiled thinking - that son' of a gun
Chorus:
It happened in the movies
I was in a full blush
In a place full of noisy kids
There was only the two of us
In one fell swoop - I was thrown for a loop - yea, he sure was cute
It happened in the movies
