Wallflower by Better Than Ezra
Wallflower lyrics
You were standing on the corner when it all came crashing down
On your black shoes and your black hat
You pulled your black dress round
I suppose you should feel sorry but I see you dressed in silk
With a double cappuccino and it's topped with dry steamed milk
You know I guess you should feel sorry after all
But I'm not crying anymore
Well do you forget who you are
When you're the last one in the bar?
And then morning unfurls on the wallflower
Yeah yeah wallflower girl, on the wallflower girl
Well you're in and out and up and down and halfway in between
You're holly-go-lightly, yeah I heard you played that scene
Well you say that you're an actress and a painter on the side
And you used to read the tarot cards but you don't like what you find
But I suppose we both know your future anyway
Hey hey hey
Now do you forget who you are?
When you're the last one in the bar
And then morning unfurls on the wallflower
Yeah yeah wallflower girl on the wallflower girl
When you're climbing up a mountainside
Well they say it hurts your ears when they pop
That's the price you pay now for being on top
Well the light is turning greener then my thoughts are ringing true
And the reason that I'm so hard girl I see myself in you
And the mountain tops and the valleys and the vantage points between
Well you used to read the tarot cards but you don't like what you've seen
But I suppose we both know your future anyway
Hey hey hey
Now do you forget who you are?
When you're the last one in the bar
And then morning unfurls on the wallflower
Yeah yeah wallflower girl on the wallflower girl
