Life After the Motions Lyrics
there she is
melancholy
drink in her hand
and a man on her right
she doesn’t know
if she believes in wishing
or if there’s a thing
called dreaming now…
but it feels,
the world’s out to get her
and nothing’s getting better
what she gonna do tonight?
Chorus
she gave her heart out for free
wearing it like a teardrop
on her sleeve
she gets down on her knees
and asks why
when do I get to fly?
she loved a boy
a real prince charming
gave her the moon, stars
and happy endings
but do you know
as the story kept going
the life she thought she’d have want
wasn’t quite following the same plot
and she dropped that boy
on the spot
chorus
look at me
she says,
I’m invisible
I’m gonna fly
on through the night
you see these wings
once were broken
fixed with some
glue, hope and strings
I wonder what the future’s gonna bring…
chorus
melancholy
drink in her hand
and a man on her right
she doesn’t know
if she believes in wishing
or if there’s a thing
called dreaming now…
but it feels,
the world’s out to get her
and nothing’s getting better
what she gonna do tonight?
wearing it like a teardrop
on her sleeve
she gets down on her knees
and asks why
when do I get to fly?
a real prince charming
gave her the moon, stars
and happy endings
but do you know
as the story kept going
the life she thought she’d have want
wasn’t quite following the same plot
and she dropped that boy
on the spot
she says,
I’m invisible
I’m gonna fly
on through the night
you see these wings
once were broken
fixed with some
glue, hope and strings
I wonder what the future’s gonna bring…
