Well I think I look like Marilyn Monroe Standing by the subway, feel the wind blow I dream for a living, it's got me this far Everyday's a movie and I'm a star You're gonna fall in love, and then you're gonna fade Everything changes in seventh grade You stand in a circle, pretending to inhale Every situation you're a different girl And I never want to lose it This fast-forward crashing moment We're all dying just to hold onto it And you say, you can't dance They're tearing down museums, and putting up malls We'll all be in fashion when Niagara falls You held my hand, I was a little girl
Everything is sacred in a broken world And I never want to lose it This fast-forward crashing moment We're all dying just to hold onto it And you say, you can't dance Yeah you say, you won't dance Forget about the let-down, forget about the hometown You're on your own now And I never want to lose it This fast-forward crashing moment We're all dying just to hold onto it And you say, you can't dance Yeah you say, you won't dance Well I think I look like Marilyn Monroe Standing by the subway, feel the wind blow
