Today you wear a dress of white
A color that no longer feels right
At fifty you've walked so far
But here you are beneath a different star
I see the change in your face
But it's not just age it's time displaced
Oh to white doesn't fit like it used to
The stories you told aren't true
Life's not the dream you once painted
The colors have faded tainted
But still I watch I try to understand the reasons why
I hold the petals yellow and cold
At twenty two my heart's grown old
I see you now but the past is clear
A man who left us left you in tears
You taught me life from your own pain
But I see through it now through the rain
Oh the white doesn't fit like it used to
The stories you told aren't true
Life's not the dream you once painted
The colors have faded tainted
But still I watch I try to understand the reasons why
Can you see the shadows that linger
In the footsteps of your younger figure
You once believed but now you know
That life isn't the tales you show
All the white doesn't fit like it used to
The stories you told aren't true
Life's not the dream you once painted
The colors have faded tainted
But still I watch I try to understand the reasons why
Why does it feel like it used to used to
The stories you told aren't true
Aren't true life's not the dream you once painted
The colors have faded fainted
But still I watch
I try to understand the reasons why
Can you see the shadows that linger
In the footsteps of your younger finger
Once believed but now you know
That life is in the tales you show
