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