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 waiting Wearin' 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 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 absolutely love her When she smiles
How many lovers would stay? Just to put up with this -- day after day How did we wind up this way? Watchin' our mouths for the words that we say As long as we stand here waitin' Wearin' the clothes of the souls that we choose How do we get there today? When we're walkin' too far for 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 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
And 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 absolutely love her
This is the story of a girl Whose 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
Summer has come and passed The innocent can never last Wake me up when September ends
Like my fathers come to pass Seven years has gone so fast Wake me up when September ends
Here comes the rain again Falling from the stars Drenched in my pain again Becoming who we are
As my memory rests But never forgets what I lost Wake me up when September ends
Summer has come and passed The innocent can never last Wake me up when September ends
Ring out the bells again Like we did when spring began Wake me up when September ends
Here comes the rain again Falling from the stars Drenched in my pain again Becoming who we are
As my memory rests But never forgets what I lost Wake me up when September ends
Summer has come and passed The innocent can never last Wake me up when September ends
Like my father's come to pass Twenty years has gone so fast Wake me up when September ends Wake me up when September ends Wake me up when September ends
