She held the world upon a string But she didn’t ever hold me Spun the stars on her fingernails But it never made her happy ‘Cause she couldn’t ever have me
She said she’d won the world at a carnival But she couldn’t ever win me ‘Cause she couldn’t ever catch me
I, I know why Because when I look in her eyes I just see the sky When I look in her eyes Well I just see the sky
I don’t love you I’m just passing the time You could love me if I knew how to lie But who could love me? I am out of my mind Throwing a line out to sea To see if I can catch a dream
The sun was always in her eyes She didn’t even see me But that girl had so much love She’d want to kiss you all the time Yeah, she’d want to kiss you all the time
She said she’d won the world at a carnival But I’m sure I didn’t ruin her I just made her more interesting I’m sure I didn’t ruin her I just made her more interesting
I, I know why Because when I look in her eyes I just see the sky When I look in her eyes Well I just see the sky
I don’t love you I’m just passing the time You could love me if I knew how to lie But who could love me? I am out of my mind Throwing a line out to sea To see if I can catch a dream
