Why do all my friends
Now want to be your lovers?
Your family got bigger
When they thought you were rich

And now like maniacs
They scratch your back
Even when it doesn't itch

I want to figure it all
I want to figure it all out
I want to save you from
Save you from all the fame
Save you from the things that cause us pain

Told you I felt lucky with my humble breasts
Well I don't
Said that I was sure the world was gonna change
Well I'm not
Swore I didn't give a damn 'bout what they say
But I do
I promised that I'd never ever lie to you

So look at how
I'm taking the make-up off my face
Before I forget my own features

I'm not here to let you down
But the costume makes the clown

Once upon a time you and I
When we were dreaming easy
Fresh as limes and happy as a Sunday sky
There was nothing we could sell or buy
'Cause all we really needed
Was our bare feet and a pair of wings to fly

What do you think, darling?
Have we lived too much, too fast?
And have you
Have you felt melancholy, darling
Wishing that time hadn't passed?

Can you tell me how it used to be?

I'd like to be
The kind of dream you'd never share
To be your boss and to be your maid
Your shaving cream, your razor blade
The buttons of your shirt
Your favourite underwear

I'd like to be
The only thing on Earth that makes you cry
The only thing that makes you happy
Soon you will see
That no one else but me can take you this high
And soon you'll make your last name mine

Hey you

Who woul've thought that you could hurt me
the way you've done it
so deliberate, so determined
and since you have been gone
I bite my nails for days and hours
and question my own questions on and on...

So tell me now, tell me now
why you're so far away
when I'm still so close...

Chorus:
You don't even know the meaning of the words "I'm Sorry"
you said you would love me until you die

Who's to say that we always have to agree
I think we can both can take this one mistake
Like some kind of amnesty

Why to love and with such brutality?
We're compatible
Maybe a bit too much
That's our ambiguity

I've cried a thousand storms
I've blown away the clouds
The heartbeat of the sun is racing mine
I'm reaching out
My heart is waiting

This is the day and the time

Tell me, what's the use
Of the twenty-four inch waist
If you don't touch me?
Tell me, what's the use again
Of being on TV every day
If you don't watch me?

This house is full of emptiness
My closet's full of dresses
That I'll never wear
My life is full of people
But you're my only friend
My best friend

Hope it isn't too late
To say "I love you"
Hope it isn't too late to say
