Role of a Lifetime

I wrote this just after breaking up with my first boyfriend, who dreamed of someday being a film director.

Role of a Lifetime


You picked me, 'cause you liked my looks,
To be the leading lady in the movie of your life.
You were the director, and you wanted me to be your perfect star.
There was no audition that I knew of, so I thought you wanted me for me;
But I'm not an actress
And I couldn't play the part.
