This is the story
Of a girl who cried a river
And drowned the whole world
While she looked so sad in photographs
I absolutely love her when she smiles
How many days in the year
She woke up with hope that she only found tears
And acting is so insincere
Making the 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 you choose
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 girl who cried a river
And drowned the whole world
And while she looks so sad in photographs
I ask absolutely love her when she smiles
Now how many lovers can stay
Just to put up with this every day and all day
How did we wind up this way
What's in our mouths with 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 too 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 looked 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
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
While she looked so sad in photographs
I absolutely love her
This is the story
Of a girl the pretty face she hid from the world
While she looks so sad and lonely
There I absolutely love her
This is the story story
Of a girl who cried a river
And drown the whole world
Why she looks so sad in photograph
I absolutely love her
When she smiles
When she smiles
