This is the story of a girl

who cried a river and drowned a whole world

why 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

i can be so insensere

making the promises never for real

as long she stands there waiting

wearing the holes in the soles of her shoes

how many days disappear

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 a whole world

why 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 day after day

how do we wind up this way

watching our mouths for the words that we say

as long as we stand here waiting

wearing the holes in the soles of our shoes

how do we get there today

when were walking too far from the price of our shoes



your clothes never wear as well the next day

and 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 gril

who cried a river and drowned a whole world

this is the story of a girl
