|
ooh! get me away from here i'm dying |
|
Play me a song to set me free |
|
Nobody writes them like they used to |
|
So it may as well be me |
|
Here on my own now after hours |
|
Here on my own now on a bus |
|
Think of it this way |
|
You could either be successful or be us |
|
With our winning smiles, and us |
|
With our catchy tunes and words |
|
Now we're photogenic |
|
You know, we don't stand a chance |
|
Oh, i'll settle down with some old story |
|
About a boy who's just like me |
|
Thought there was love in everything and everyone |
|
You're so naive! |
|
They always reach a sorry ending |
|
They always get it in the end |
|
Still it was worth it as i turned the pages solemnly, and then |
|
With a winning smile, the poor boy |
|
With naivety succeeds |
|
At the final moment, i cried |
|
I always cry at endings |
|
Oh, that wasn't what i meant to say at all |
|
From where i'm sitting, rain |
|
Falling against the lonely tenement |
|
Has set my mind to wander |
|
Into the windows of my lovers |
|
They never know unless i write |
|
'this is no declaration, i just thought i'd let you know goodbye' |
|
Said the hero in the story |
|
'it is mightier than swords |
|
I could kill you sure |
|
But i could only make you cry with these words' |
