I’m one of a million voices,
Girl among a sea of boys,
I try to keep it real.
An atmosphere that you can taste,
Wouldn’t it just be a waste,
Not to show the way you feel?
I miss my stop at Levenshulme.
I know someone who’ll give me room.
And suddenly this grubby night,
This little life is big and bright,
And full of possibility.
I melt into the wave,
I watch my marbles roll into the night,
If only, if only.
Your beauty makes me feel alone,
And a very long way from home.
Pull yourself together girl,
Get sucked back in the world,
Do your buttons up.
Yet I am waiting still,
For you I always will,
For you I always would,
Do you have to be so good?
Oh my soul -
Do you have to be so beautiful?
Pull yourself together girl,
Get sucked back in the world,
Do your buttons up.
Yet I am waiting still,
For you I always will,
For you I always would,
Do you have to be so good?
