There was this boy who came to town.
|
Was cooler than the boys in all my crazy dreams.
|
All the problems I thought I had all but disappeared.
|
And he would always,
|
Always think of me first.
|
And we were writing the history books and we were so in love.
|
And there was this girl, she used to hang out,
|
I never saw anything, anyone, no one so beautiful
|
And she would sit around,
|
And wait for the day to end.
|
And she would offer herself as if she had nowhere else to go.
|
And I didn't think nothing of it
|
And that's when my life went cold.
|
And then she was not sleeping in your bed,
|
And she was all over you.
|
And there she was sleeping in my bed.
|
And then there were all these issues,
|
And then there were all these issues.
|
|
This time I'm gonna get it right,
|
I'm gonna paint my face like the Guggenheim.
|
This time I'm gonna get it right,
|
I'm gonna paint my face like the Guggenheim.
|
This time I'm gonna get it right,
|
This time I'm gonna get it right.
|
This time I'm gonna get it right,
|
I'm gonna paint my face like the Guggenheim.
|
|
And all the things we used to say and used to do together,
|
And I can't believe
|
That there were such good things between us,
|
And we threw them all away.
|
Just because this girl,
|
She thought that she had something to say.
|
And all the things I'm now left with are scarred upon my mind,
|
And I can't believe all these times I used to wait,
|
And I never used to go out and show myself,
|
Cos I got everything I need.
|
And you need to stop that now,
|
You used to stop me doing what I wanted,
|
And now I can't do it anymore,
|
Cos I discovered there's something about me
|
That everybody wants some more
|
That everybody wants some more.
|
|
This time I'm gonna get it right,
|
I'm gonna paint my face like the Guggenheim.
|
This time I'm gonna get it right,
|
I'm gonna paint my face like the Guggenheim.
|
This time I'm gonna get it right,
|
This time I'm gonna get it right.
|
This time I'm gonna get it right,
|
I'm gonna paint my face like the Guggenheim.
|
|
And after all that's said and done,
|
I had to,
|
Pick myself up and find myself at number one.
|
Cos this isn't about you anymore,
|
This is all about me.
|
It wasn't your fault that I was living up in a tree.
|
I was waiting for things,
|
I was waiting for things to come to me.
|
We were never in love,
|
And we were never meant to be.
|
All the things that you said,
|
I don't hold you responsible.
|
I needed to get myself together,
|
And that's what've I gone and done,
|
And that's what I've gone and done,
|
And that's what I've gone and done.
|
And now I'm here right now,
|
And my life has just begun.
|
My life has just begun!
|
|
This time I'm gonna get it right,
|
I'm gonna paint my face like the Guggenheim.
|
This time I'm gonna get it right,
|
I'm gonna paint my face like the Guggenheim.
|
This time I'm gonna get it right,
|
This time I'm gonna get it right.
|
This time I'm gonna get it right,
|
I'm gonna paint my face like the Guggenheim.
