lyrics

A blue eyed brunette in a little sundress
Pulled her shades on at noon
She walked through the streets, kept moving her feet
Never stop, she'll be leaving soon
She moved through the crowd like a plane through a cloud
Never see her, if you didn't look
She was a thief of hearts, she always loved the arts
It was more than papers that she took

And she looked through the stores, she's always coming up short
Seems like nothing is ever enough
On a search for perfection with a lack of direction
And her mind's made on just giving up
She left empty handed, it was just as she planned it
Before a chance was given
She lost the ability to find any thrill to seek
She's barely living

Can I just ask you, what do you live for?
You play the fool just for something to do like no other
Can I be real here, just for a minute?
I don't think I like that shade of blue on you, cause that's just not your colour

You're so much brighter than that

And I think you should look at just what you took
Didn't you have everything before?
But you're after too much, nothing's ever enough
And you've still got the nerve to ask for more
I really do wish you'd see you're bigger than this
But maybe you'll never be content
You gotta be kidding me, you're not even listening
Let's start over again

Can I just ask you, what do you live for?
You play the fool just for something to do like no other
Can I be real here, just for a minute?
I don't think I like that shade of blue on you, cause that's just not your colour

You're so much brighter than that
