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
