Leddra Chapman Edie
Dance on ceilings
Like you do
Sparkled earrings
You cling to
Your skipping heart beats in the room
Every eye is on you
They're making movies about you now
Of how he played guitar for you
So paint the lines beneath your eyes
To hide the pain beneath the lies
You're chasing streetlights home tonight
You're chasing streetlights home
Telling tales like you do
So off the rails
Breaking rules
The fluttered lashes you see through
You catch his eye across the room
You took his breath away as you moved
You couldn't change if you wanted to
He called you his rolling stone
Should you roll away home now?
So paint the lines beneath your eyes
To hide the pain beneath your lies
You're chasing streetlights home tonight
You're chasing streetlights home
You'll never change
You'll never know
You'll never grow
The camera rolls so dance away another show
The tears have dried
Your world collides
Falling through in black and white
Your face still glows it's all for show
Your words grow old without you
But paint the lines beneath your eyes
To hide the pain beneath your lies
You're chasing streetlights home tonight
You're chasing streetlights home
You'll never change
You'll never know
You'll never grow
The camera rolls so dance away another show
