LYRICS
I believe in old fashioned love
I believe there’s a world above
It’s all a great plan
I believe in time after time
I believe in lifelines
Angels to hold our hands
So how can it be
Your words on which I hung
And so many sad songs sung by me
How can it be
All the times you lied
After all of the tears I’ve cried
It’s still you that I see
I believe in honesty
I suppose things are meant to be
Nothing really goes wrong
I believe in just and fair
I believe we have to dare
To get big things done
So how can it be
Your words to which I clung
So many sad songs sung by me
How can it be
After all of the times you lied
After all of the tears I cried
That I don’t feel free
So today’s your milestone birthday
You always said you were too young
To live without my love
But that’s how it’s gotta be
I don’t call you, you don’t call me
It’s just a memory
So how can it be
Does true love just fade
All the music you made for me
How can it be
The promises that you broke
The beautiful words you spoke
I still feel you next to me
New York City, never looked so pretty
Never looked so wonderful, my love
New York City, such a pity
Could have been so wonderful, my love
Take these demons from me
I can’t have them under my roof
They’re too sweet and I’m struggling
To keep telling you the whole truth
It seems so very simple
Don’t consume more than you’re using
A human brain is so complex
And so skilled at excusing
Keep my head above the surface
I’m paddling hard I’m feeling nervous
My hungry self mothers and daughters
I want my identity back
Every woman’s obsession
Allows me to develop somehow
There’s a baby crying
And there’s a big fat cow
And no one else can help me out
And no one else can help me out
All control eludes me
Overtakes me out of the blue
My mind tricks me into doing
What my temple doesn’t want to
This inexplicable conscience
Whispering to me in a soft voice
Tells me I should just do it
It doesn’t feel like my own choice
Don’t always get just what you wanted
Pressures keeping me down this was unexpected
My hungry self mothers and daughters
I want my identity back
Every woman’s obsession
Allows me to develop somehow
There’s a baby crying
And there’s a big fat cow
There’s a baby crying
And there’s a big fat cow
And only I can help me out
And only I can help me out
Please make a chick flick tonight
No more horror movies
Give me a happy ending
I want Hollywood
I’m so excited I’m going out tonight
I’ve stuffed my face and my jeans are a little bit tight
I have a cold and my nose is red and sore
But I won’t care when I go knocking on heavens door
This one is different he’s spiritual and pure
And he’s a singer I can see us together on tour
They say he’s special and caring and wise
It’s so long since I’ve met someone who’s actually nice
They say he’s nice oh no
Oh no oh no it’s raining it’s raining and
I’m here here on my own again my own again
I’m here over reacting reacting
It feels like an Ealing Comedy it’s a comedy
I’m on his doorstep and there’s no reply
My heart is pounding I don’t understand how and why
And so I check it’s the wrong number bell
I ring the right one no answer again
I’m in hell this feels like hell oh no
Oh no oh no it’s raining it’s raining
I’m here here on my own again my own again
I’m watching myself in a film it’s not Hollywood
It’s more like an Ealing Comedy it’s a comedy
And when he calls to explain I behave like a victim
His excuses are real but I’m horrible oh no no no
Oh no oh no it’s raining it’s raining and
I’m here here on my own again my own again
I’m watching myself in a film it’s not Hollywood
It’s more like an Ealing comedy it’s a comedy
It’s more like an Ealing comedy it’s a comedy
Please make a chick flick tonight
No more horror movies
Give me a happy Ending
I want Hollywood
Through the mist of ancient memories
Since the dawn of distant time
From the depths of the deepest ocean
To the peaks of the mountains high
In the age of the sages
Wisdom handed down the line
Sounds of falling angels
Recall your dreams in mine
Love’s in the air and I’m looking at
Cherry blossoms flowing in my eyes
And I see the sun, and it’s shining
As you float into my mind
We are the music makers
And we are the dreamers of dreams
Wondering by lone sea breakers
And sitting by desolate streams
World losers and foresakers
On whom the pale moon gleams
We are the movers and shakers
Of the world forever it seems
Love’s in the air and I’m looking at
Cherry blossoms flowing in my eyes
And I see the sun, and it’s shining
As you float into my mind
Love’s in the air and I’m looking at
Couples dancing round the circle of their lives
And I see your face
Am I dreaming
As you float into my mind
I’m dreaming of a new place
There’s a brand new world
A place with new faces
My destiny is in my hands
I’ll go to other lands
They may not understand
That I need to do this for me
I know who I can be
I know me and they’ll see my heart beating
They can watch me grow
And even when I fall
They can see me rise from the flames
Like a phoenix I’ll be born again
There’s no if only when
Flying into the sun
Standing on the edge of a dream
Not all is as it seems
Not gonna to turn around
So, push me, no way I’m going back
I’m just not going back
I won’t fall through the cracks cause
I’m in control, I am free
I know who I can be
I know me and they’ll see my heart beating
They can watch me grow
And even when I fall
They can see me rise from the flames
Like a phoenix I’ll be born again
There’s no if only when
Flying into the sun
They can see me climb
And even if I tumble
They can see me rise from the flames
Like a phoenix I’ll be born again
There’s no if only when
Flying into the sun
I can almost touch it
I can see what’s in sight
I can feel it there
Heading straight for the light
I can almost touch it
I can see what’s in sight
I can feel it there
Heading straight for the light
They can watch me grow
And even when I fall
They can see me rise from the flames
Like a phoenix I’ll be born again
There’s no if only when
Flying into the sun
They can see me climb
And even if I tumble
They can see me rise from the flames
Like a phoenix I’ll be born again
There’s no if only when
Flying into the sun
Russian by blood
Sliding in mud
You listened properly
Picking your mix
Loves New York Knicks
Slight case of ADD
Maybe Zach Braff had been invaded
I wish that you could be persuaded
I’ve heard it all before and it’s just boring me
Run run run, you’re all made of sugar
Run run run, you’re not made of lead
Come come come, you shoulda, you coulda
Run run run, you ran from my bed
Emerald eyes
Screaming high fives
Yes I’m good company
My ex had that shirt
God you can flirt
Baby it’s New Years Eve
You’ve had your English tea by my side
And now you’ve found yourself a new ride
I’ve seen it all before and it’s not good for me
Run run run
It’s a long time ago
He’s holding me tight night after night
My popstar scenario
A flaccid dream that never came quite right
Run run run, you’re all made of sugar
Run run run, you’re not made of lead
Come come come, you shoulda, you coulda
Run run run, you ran from my bed
He’s an attorney
Busts his balls on Liberty Street
He goes so hard
He doesn’t let the ground touch his feet
Merging and acquiring
And scanning all those papers
With his brilliant eyes
He’s up and down Manhattan
Totally bionic
11pm and he’ll have a gin and tonic
Another and another
Until all of a sudden
The sun comes up
High from the deals
Waiting for something real
Desperate to feel
Like he did before
Opens doors for ladies
He’s really very proper
And on the weekend
He’ll hop onto a chopper
Down to Shelter Island
To his two terrific houses
Till Sunday comes
Groomed to perfection
The archetypal Virgo
For someone somewhere
He’ll make a hesitant beau
If the fancy takes him
And she can crack him open
And feed his soul
High from the deals
Waiting for something real
Desperate to feel
Like he did before
Chased the perfect ideal man
Everything went to my plan
Earned my prince, convinced my guy
He didn’t stand a chance and I
Didn’t stop to feel, if this was real
The gold standard of all men
Easily ten out of ten
My dream of security
Materialized in front of me
Then he proposed, I was happy, I suppose
And the other girls they hated me
All wrapped up in jealousy
Seeing my life so perfectly
And I wondered what was wrong with me
Fell pregnant so easily
Bouncing twins were born to me
Two in one, lost the baby weight
Still I looked like a first date
Did he love me, or my abilities
And the other mothers hated me
All wrapped up in jealousy
Seeing my life so perfectly
And I wondered what was wrong with me
Organic food, ran the PTA
Trained the dog and smiled away
Trundled through my own fatigue
Got the kids to Ivy League
Then we were free, just him (Clark) and me
How did we get here
When did we die
How far can we march along
And keep living this lie
I’ve lived it in the classics
I’ve loved it on the screen
But never felt the touch the wonder
It’s still just my dream
Yet the other mothers hated me
All wrapped up in jealousy
Seeing my life so perfectly
And I wondered what was wrong with me
And the other wives, they hated me
All wrapped up in jealousy
The perfect life for all to see
And all I felt was so empty
I keep trying to let you go
I kept trying to let you know
That was the one thing I couldn’t deal with
But you made your decision
A man in confusion
A promise forever broken
And where was I
I was feeling every move
5000 miles away from you
I thought you were the one
I thought we were so strong
That we were special, nothing could break us
I thought you’d love me till the end
My new oldest best friend
Destroyed me in a heartbeat
And where was I
Did you think I wouldn’t feel her move
5000 miles away
Where was I
I was lying next to both of you
5000 miles away it’s true
So insecure, all my hurt
Pushed you far away
I didn’t trust you so you thought
You might as well, do it anyway
I wanted to heal you
I wanted to build you up
Thought I was trying something different
I tried to slay the victim
Now I play the victim too
Looks like it’s catching
Rules of attraction
And where was I when you changed the rules
5000 miles away
Left in the ring
Beaten black but mostly blue
5000 miles away from you
I keep trying to let you go
I kept trying to let you know
That was the one thing I couldn’t deal with
