This is the story of a girl
|
Who cried a river and drowned the whole world
|
And while she looks 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,
|
Making the promises never for real
|
As long as she stands there with you
|
Wearing the holes in the soles of her shoes
|
How many days disappear?
|
When you look in the mirror so how do you choose?
|
|
Your clothes never wear as well the next day
|
Your hair never falls in quite the same way
|
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 in photographs
|
I absolutely love her
|
When she smiles
|
|
How many lovers would stay?
|
Just to put up with this shit every day and all day?
|
How did we wind up this way?
|
Watching our mouths for the words that we say
|
As long as we stand here waiting
|
Wearing the clothes on the soles of our shoes
|
How do we get there today?
|
When we're walking too far for the price of her shoes
|
|
Your clothes never wear as well the next day
|
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
|
And 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 in photographs
|
I absolutely love her
|
|
This is the story of a girl
|
Her 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 looks so sad in photographs
|
I absolutely love her
|
When she smiles
|
When she smiles!
