Now, the rain comes down the windows
And it drops onto the forehead of the waiting boy
He surveys his rental kingdom and he
Wonders if he's really lost his joy
Another fool would go down
To the only place she ever went to lose herself
She's gone to the movies, now
And she don't need your help
Now, the rain turns into snowfall
As the city sky reflects the silver street, below
And it covers up the cars
And the Wallflowers CD ended half an hour ago
Another fool would dig the broken car
Out from the snow and drive to find the show
She's gone to the movies, now, and she's not comin' home
She's gone to the movies, now, and she's not comin' home
Now, he looks around his place
And anyways, there's nowhere she could sit, besides the bed
And he wonders if the car will start tomorrow
Or he'll have to take the bus instead
Any other fool would be out on the roadway
Trying to spot her rusted Pontiac
She's gone to the movies, now, and she's not comin' back
She's gone to the movies, now, and she's not comin' back
