This is the story of a girl |
|
Who cried a river and drowned the whole world |
|
And while she looked so sad in photographs |
|
I absolutely love her when she smiles |
|
How many days in a year? |
|
She woke up with hope |
|
But she only found tears |
|
And I can be so insincere |
|
Makin' her promises never for real |
|
As long as she stands there waiting |
|
Wearing the holes in the soles of her shoes |
|
How many days disappear when you look in the mirror |
|
So how do ya choose? |
|
Your clothes never wear as well the next day |
|
And your hair never falls in quite the same way |
|
But you never seem to run out of things to say |
|
This is the story of a girl |
|
Who cried a river and drowned the whole world |
|
And while she looked so sad in photographs |
|
I absolutely love her when she smiles |
|
And how many lovers would stay |
|
Just to put up with this shit day after day |
|
How did we wind up this way |
|
Watchin' our mouths for the words that we say |
|
As long as we stand here waiting |
|
Wearing the clothes of the souls that we choose |
|
How do we get there today? |
|
When you're walking to far for the price of your shoes |
|
Your clothes never wear as well the next day |
|
And your hair never falls in quite the same way |
|
But you never seem to run out of things to say |
|
This is the story of a girl |
|
Who cried a river and drowned the whole world |
|
And while she looks so sad and lonely there |
|
I absolutely love her when she smiles |
|
Well, your clothes never wear as well the next day |
|
And your hair never falls in quite the same way |
|
But you never seem to run out of things to say |
|
This is the story of a girl |
|
Who cried a river and drowned the whole world |
|
And while she looked so sad in photographs |
|
I absolutely love her |
|
This is the story of a girl |
|
A pretty face she hid from the world |
|
And while she looks so sad and lonely there |
|
I absolutely love her |
|
This is the story of a girl |
|
Who cried a river and drowned the whole world |
|
And while she looked so sad in photographs |
|
I absolutely love her when she smiles |
|
When she smiles |
