This girl I know has jet black eyes
A peach-like skin and a crooked smile
You see her face and you'll never forget her
They say that beauty lies within
Scratch the surface to reveal a sin
I know that's she's not coming down
Until tomorrow

The boy I know has a battle scar
A body to die for and a blue guitar
You see his face in a crowd and forget him
Through dizzy heights on the top the world
The soul of a man meets a lonely girl
His heart of gold that she has found
Laughs until tomorrow's breaking

Maybe she will find
When checking out the good life
She was a vision of your youth
Someone to look up to
Make a wish, check out the good life
Meet a friend, turn off the spotlight
Life is sweet and everything feels new
When there's someone to look up to

Maybe she will find
When checking out the good life
She was a vision of your youth
Someone to look up to
Make a wish, check out the good life
Meet a friend, turn off the spotlight
Life is sweet and everything feels new
When there's someone to look up to

I believe in the powers that be
The sun in the sky and the moon and the sea
Nothing ventured then there's nothing to gain
For once in your life remember to send
Too many questions and more of the same
Over and over and over again
The light shines in through the hole in my ceiling
Tomorrow's screaming

Maybe she will find
When checking out the good life
She was a vision of your youth
Someone to look up to
Make a wish, check out the good life
Meet a friend, turn off the spotlight
Life is sweet and everything feels new
When there's someone to look up to

Make a wish, check out the good life
Meet a friend, turn off the spotlight
Life is sweet and everything feels new
When there's someone to look up to

Make a wish, check out the good life
Meet a friend, turn off the spotlight
Life is sweet and everything feels new
When there's someone to look up to
