Lyrics

THEY SAY
BEFORE YOU GET TO KNOW HER
KNOW WHERE SHE?S GONE TO SEED
HER FLOWERS GROW MUCH SLOWER
TAKE ONLY WHAT YOU NEED
BUT WHAT I DON?T UNDERSTAND
WHAT I AM DYING TO LEARN
IS WHY SHE HAS TO

TURN LIKE LEAVES
AND LEAVE LIKE LOVERS
SHE TURNS LIKE LEAVES ? BUT STAYS LIKE FLOWERS
SHE NEEDS THE SUN ? BUT MORE THAN ONE

SHE?S GOT ONE IN THE SKY, TWO IN HER EYES
THREE SHE SEES IN OTHER GUYS
TWO FROM HER FOLKS, ONE WHEN SHE SMOKES
THEN I
THE LAST SUN IN HER SKY

HER FINGERS REACH FOR DOORS
LIKE SUNLIGHT FOR GARDENS
SHE FEARS THE DARK OF COURSE
AND HER FLOWERS FORGOTTEN
BUT WHAT MAKES ME REALLY MAD
WHAT MAKES ME JUST START TO BURN
IS WHEN SHE STARTS TO

TURN LIKE LEAVES AND LEAVE LIKE LOVERS
SHE TURNS LIKE LEAVES ? BUT STAYS LIKE FLOWERS
SHE NEEDS THE SUN ? AND YOU'RE JUST ONE

SHE?S GOT ONE IN THE SKY, TWO IN HER EYES
THREE SHE SEES IN OTHER GUYS
TWO FROM HER FOLKS, ONE WHEN SHE SMOKES
THEN I
THE LAST SUN IN HER SKY
WHY DO I TRY?

THOUGHT I SHINED FOR HER
SHE GOT NO WARMER
CAN SHINE NO STRONGER
SHE?S MINE NO LONGER
THOUGHT I SHINED FOR HER
SHE GOT NO WARMER
AND I KNEW WHEN I FOUND HER
I JUST THREW SHADOW ?ROUND HER

SO SHE TURNS LIKE LEAVES
AND TURNS THE PILLOW
SHE TURNS LIKE LEAVES
AND WEEPS LIKE A WILLOW
SHE WANTS TO STAY AND YOU KNOW WHAT THEY SAY
THEY SAY THE SUN WILL SHINE ANOTHER DAY
THEY SAY THE SUN WILL SHINE ANOTHER DAY
THEY SAY THE SUN WILL SHINE ANOTHER DAY
THAT'S WHAT THEY SAY
