This is a 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 a year
She woke with hope but she only found tears
I can be so insincere
Making promises never for real
As long as she stands there waiting
Wearing the holes in the soles of her shoes
How many days disappear
You look in the mirror
So how do u 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 a 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 lovers would stay
Just to put up with this shit day after day
How do we wind up this way
Watching our mouths for the words that we say
As long as we stand here waiting
Wearing the cloths of the souls that we choose
How do we get there today
When were walking to far for the price of our shoes

Your cloths 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 a 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

And 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 a 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 a story of a girl
Who pretty face she hid from the world
While she looked so sad and lonely there
I absolutely love her
This is a 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
When she smiles
