Song Description

Looks great from the outside, but when you're close you see the jagged stone. If you question my actions, walk a day in my shoes.

Lyrics

A Day in My Shoes

Verse 1
This life used to seem a fairly tale
One that only Ken and Barbie could ever comprehend
The perfect life down to the smallest detail
I think I've had me all of the perfection I can stand

Verse 2
From far away the grass looks so much greener
Caressed by gentle winds and only slightly overgrown
Purple mountains like her majesty are perfect
From far away but when you're close you see the jagged stone

Pre chorus
She's making breakfast, my heads in my hands - this life is making me crazy
You criticize but this wasn't my plan - the only way you're gonna understand is

Chorus
Walk a day in my shoe - they'll take you beyond the glitter
Walk a day in my shoes - glass slippers ain't gonna fit her

Verse 3
On my own now, on the phone now
Dialing all those lovely lovely girls that used to be
So pretty pretty, so flirty flirty
It's been a while I guess they don't remember me

Pre chorus
I'm making breakfast, my head in my hands - this life is making me crazy
You empathize you say I need a new plan - the only way you're ever gonna see is

Chorus
Walk a day in my shoes - they'll take you beyond the glitter
Walk a day in my shoes - clarify the picture

Bridge
All my life I've tried to find the one who truly satisfies
Books and shrinks and friends of mine say what I need is right inside

Pre chorus
At the pub now, and having breakfast - thoughts of her are making me crazy
You philosophize but before you go there - the only way you're gonna understand is

Chorus out
Walk a day in my shoes
They'll take you beyond the glitter
Walk a day in my shoes
Not prepared for how much I'd miss her

Walk a day in my shoes
Walk a day in my shoes
