Intro - 4 seconds 
So at my show on Monday 
I was hoping someday 
You'd be on your way to better things 
It's not about your make-up 
Or how you try to shape up 
To these tiresome paper dreams 
Paper dreams, honey 
So now you pour your heart out - 1 second 
You're telling me you're far out 
You're not about to lie down for your cause 
But you don't pull my strings 
'Cos I'm a better man 
Moving on to better things 
20 seconds 
17 seconds 
Well uh oh, oh I love her because she moves in her own way 
Well uh oh, oh she came to my show just to hear about my day 
(3 seconds) 
And at the show on Tuesday 
She was in her mindset 
Tempered furs and spangled boots 
Looks are deceiving 
Make me believe it 
And these tiresome paper dreams 
Paper dreams, honey 
Yeah 
So wont you go far 
Tell me you're a keeper 
Not about to lie down for your cause 
And you don't pull my strings 
'Cos I'm a better man 
Moving on to better things 
Well oh oh, oh I love her because she moves in her own way 
Well oh oh, oh she came to my show just to hear about my day 
yes I wish that we never made it 
Through all the summers 
They're keeping us instead of 
Kicking us back 
Down through the suburbs 
yes I wish that we never made it 
Through all the summers 
They're keeping us instead of 
Kicking us back 
Down through the suburbs 
But uh oh, I love her because she moves in her own way 
But uh oh, she came to my show just to hear about my day 
But uh oh, oh I love her because she moves in her own way 
But uh oh, oh she came to my show just to hear about my day 
12 seconds 
20 seconds

During the intro of the song the camera shows a pickup truck driving 
down a country road that is unpaved, the camera will at a low angle and 
will show dust coming from the vehicle. At the start of the first verse the 
camera will show a POV of both the man and woman whilst they are 
driving. 
When these lyrics are being sung then it will show the man and woman 
sat next to each other in the car gazing into each other’s eyes. 
At this section of the song, the camera will show a close up to the 
woman who is laughing and then smiling back at the man. 
This section of the song is the most upbeat style throughout the song, 
therefore the camera will show lots of quick shots and cuts showing a 
montage of the couple laughing and generally messing around and having 
fun. 
At this verse this section of the song, will be the same as the previous time 
this verse has been sung therefore the camera will show a close up to the 
woman who is laughing and then smiling back at the man. 
This is when the memories start to fade and then he begins to 
remember why they have broken up in the first place, this verse begins to 
slow down the whole tempo of the song and the overall mood. 
Because this is the last verse before the song finishes and it is sung a lot 
slower the my shots will reflect this mood therefore I will have lots of long 
extended shots of the couple gazing into others eyes, this will overall 
portray the overall meaning of the song which is the man misses the 
woman and this will be shown through various different shots
