Chasing Rainbows

Had the bluest sky
Spent my days inside
But I'm still here
I lost all my friends
It's a bitter end
And I'm by myself
Put my life back on the shelf
Never been alone
Said I should have known
Better
There's no point to be
Wasting my time here
'Cause they won't be coming back
Is it something that I lack?
The boats have left the shore
I left my anchor on the floor
Left behind
Put words to a song
But it ran too long
Listened to not even one
Missed the whole parade
Caught up in the rain
This is nothing new to me
Wouldn't you agree?
I'm chasing rainbows now
My friends won't come to my house
Don't remind me
I'm chasing rainbows now
All my friends went to my house
They won't find me
I'm really happy now
Got the whole world in my hands
Now they found me

Another day came by and you
told me you had been so blue
I wonder if those words were true
You came by to talk to me
Tried to ask if I could see
A beautiful scene of how things could be
I can't paint that picture for you
That is one thing you have to do
You have to do
Then you found a perfect girl
A girl that made your world twirl
The most perfect girl in the world
Your girl made all the birds sing
Made a joke of everything
Made everything seem pristine
I can't make things perfect for you
That is one thing that no one can do
No one can do
She heard one lie then the next
Got fed up and finally said
"Things cannot go on this way"
You came by to talk to me
Asked me if I wanted to see
A beautiful scene of how things had been
Convey half of the picture you drew
Let the other parts be with you
Keep them with you
I can't make things perfect for you
That is one thing that no one can do
No one can do

Don't Let Me Down

Everyone is done writing
Everybody put their pencils down
Everyone is done trying
Everybody is gonna let you down
Everything is far out
Everything's outta sight
Everything is a problem
When everyone is trying to be right
Don't let me down
Everyone has a secret
They're all dying to tell the whole world
Everyone has a secret
Everybody has the right to know
Everyone is in love
Everyone is alright
Everyone has a lover
But they want to go be with another
Don't let me down

Her eyes dart across the room
Stare at the bride, stare at the groom
Moving up and down the place, she wants to leave but then she stays
Remembers she has company
She's got the fool down on his knees
Crosses her arms and rolls her eyes, the hope he had withers and dies
She won't call him anymore
She won't kiss him at the door
But her mind is somewhere
In her dreams there's no distress
In her dreams she's in that dress
And she holds him
In her dreams she's in that dress
In her dreams she's in that dress
In her dreams the groom is hers, she's someone else, she's somewhere else
In her dreams she's in that dress
Dancefloor blues they come to stay
Watching the lovers swing and sway
A ballroom romance lasts a night, fantasy so pure dressed in white
The words that needed to be said
They were kept inside her head, and the night goes on and
Watch the spouses take their bows, and the groom wiping his brow, this is going somewhere
And so then...
Once the party room cleared out
The fool left without a sound
The girl looked around and knew, shook it off, knew what to do
She saw the groom looking around
Looked at her and then looked down
Turned around let out a sigh, and the girl began to cry
She won't call him anymore
She won't kiss him at the door
But her mind is somewhere
In her dreams there's no distress
In her dreams she's in that dress
And she holds him
In her dreams she's in that dress
In her dreams she's in that dress
In her dreams the groom is hers, she's someone else, she's somewhere else
In her dreams she's in that dress
