Wallflower Songtext / Lyric

you were standing on the corner

when it all came crashing down

on your black shoes and your black hat

you pulled your black dress round

i suppose you should feel sorry

but i see you dressed in silk

with a double cappuccino

and it's topped with dry steamed milk

you know i guess you should feel sorry after all

but i'm not crying anymore



well do you forget who you are

when you're the last one in the bar

and then morning unfurls

on the wallflower

yeah yeah

wallflower girl

on the wallflower girl






well you're in and out and up and down and halfway in between

you're holly-go-lightly

yeah i heard you played that scene

well you say that you're an actress

and a painter on the side

and you used to read the tarot cards

but you don't like what you find

but i suppose we both know your future anyway

hey hey hey



now do you forget who you are

when you're the last one in the bar

and then morning unfurls

on the wallflower

yeah yeah

wallflower girl

on the wallflower girl



when you're climbing up a mountainside

well they say it hurts your ears when they pop

that's the price you pay now

for being on top



well the light is turning greener

then my thoughts are ringing true

and the reason that i'm so hard girl i see myself in you

and the mountain tops and the valleys

and the vantage points between

well you used to read the tarot cards

but you don't like what you've seen

but i suppose we both know your future anyway

hey hey hey



now do you forget who you are

when you're the last one in the bar

and then morning unfurls

on the wallflower

yeah yeah

wallflower girl

on the wallflower girl



oooh

ooooh

ahhh
