Brendan McGlynn - The Girl & The Bicycle lyrics

[Verse 1] I fell in love with a girl on a bicycle The florena dress climbing into her hair Was it an economic choice or an environmental voice That took her brown leather boots to rotations around a wheel? [Chorus 1] But it's all pretend Oh, never would I see her face again Keep my head down I'll never be that face in the crowd I'll never be that face in the crowd No, I'll never be that face in the crowd [Verse 2] Well, I got it up for the girl at the corner shop Once asking for change, now she's telling me not to stop Was it compatibility or convenient company That results in love? I find so hard to see, see [Chorus 2] But it's all pretend I couldn't work the courage up again On a single side of a double bed I think about the trend Oh, I wonder why things are the same again Oh, I wonder why things are the same again [Verse 3] Well, I grew my beard just to watch it grow I cut my hair to see how it goes But if you change the cover, it don't change what is under In emperor's clothes I walk out into the thunder [Chorus 3] And I pretend That true love would find me in the end But if not now, will someone please tell me when? Will someone please tell me when? Will someone please tell me when?
