Story Of A Girl.
by Crushed Velvet on August 28, 2006 This is the story of a girl Who cried a river and drowned the whole world And while she looks so sad in photographs I absolutely love her When she smiles How many days in a year? She woke up with hope but she only found tears And I can be so insincere Making the promises never for real As long as she stands there waiting Wearin' the holes in the soles of her shoes How many days disappear? You look in the mirror, so how do you choose? Your clothes never wear as well the next day And your hair never falls in quite the same way You never seem to run out of things to say This is the story of a girl Who cried a river and drowned the whole world And while she looks so sad in photographs I absolutely love her When she smiles How many lovers would stay? Just to put up with this shit day after day How did we wind up this way? Watchin' our mouths for the words that we say As long as we stand here waitin' Wearin' the clothes of the souls that we choose How do we get there today? When we're walkin' too far for the price of our shoes Your clothes never wear as well the next day And your hair never falls in quite the same way You never seem to run out of things to say This is the story of a girl Who cried a river and drowned the whole world And while she looks so sad in photographs I absolutely love her When she smiles And your clothes never wear as well the next day And your hair never falls in quite the same way You never seem to run out of things to say This is the story of a girl Who cried a river and drowned the whole world And while she looks so sad in photographs I absolutely love her This is the story of a girl Whose pretty face she hid from the world And while she looks so sad and lonely there I absolutely love her This is the story of a girl Who cried a river and drowned the whole world And while she looks so sad in photographs I absolutely love her When she smiles When she smiles -------------------------------------------------------- I can relate to this song. My boyfriend's always on my case to try and get me to smile. I've had quite a rough life. I've been abused when I was younger, molested by my stepdad [who I thought I loved for ten years, but when he does something stupid like that, I had my heart broken.] I thought I would never love again, until now. Brian's mending my heart day by day. It's hard for me to keep eye contact with him, but I'm fine with everyone else. I fear closeness; something I just recently learned. Then, one day, while we were talking about the different accents I bring out at times, I looked at him. I've always appeared distant, and for the first time in three [almost four] months of dating him, I actually got a glimpse of his eyes. This lasted for ten minutes. The part I relate to is how I made Brian sooo happy. I had this smile on my face that could last an eternity. I've never felt so happy, and now that I've got this good thing in my life [someone to love], I find that I relate to this song. I've never been so happy until now. And, as you can tell by this comment, "You never seem to run out of things to say" ;; I have opened up more. I talk a lot more, and I'm getting comfortable with the presence of people. This song is basically how the singer is in love with his girlfriend, no matter. There may be times when she absolutely drives him nuts, but he loves her. I can relate to this, only I'm the girl in this scene. I feel like I annoy my boyfriend with the tiniest little things, but he sticks with me because he loves to see that smile I eventually give. We both love each other so much. There's no way we want to let go of each other.No Comments
