lyrics

Here’s one last attempt to please you,
To twist my velvet words into strawberry Jell-O.
Hello for now,
Goodbye for good.
If only you understood,
If only you understood.

A coffee black,
Or a bottle of wine.
It’ll all be fine,
And I am like brand new.

But painted nails,
And writing songs,
And ketchup on my new white dress.
And aaah, I must confess,
I miss those days!

Chorus:
Ben,
Who we are was better then.
And I count the days until we finally catch the same stone.
And no ones known,
And no one ever will,
Cause they’re still lost,
But we’ve kept fingerprints,
And I’ve never seen another quite like Ben.

Her dreams are made of lemonade that only you believe will be,
But that’s enough to keep alive
The freckles on your face,
Incase the moon bleaches it away.
If I knew a way,
If only I knew a way.

And I could cry,
Because your eyes,
They’re the calm before the storm,
And I am like brand new.

But painted nails,
And writing songs,
And ketchup on my new white dress.
And aaah, I must confess,
I miss those days

Chorus

Oh Ben,
If I knew a way,
If only I knew a way.
Here’s one last attempt to please you.
