Carrie Akre - Humdrum by Carrie Akre lyrics

Belle looks down, reflecting again On what her life has become; She's worked hard to garner A husband, a home And now, we're sure she's alone And it's: oh-oh, sorry Oh, how sad Oh, sad Yes it's: oh-oh, sorry Oh, how sad Oh, sad She cries, "I can't make it alone, [hey hey hey] 'cause I fear is for my life Here on my own." [hmmm] Beauty lies so far from her heart It's an ugly sight to behold And now once in a while She takes out a mirror To stare and look for a soul And it's: oh-oh, sorry Oh, how sad Oh, sad Yes it's: oh-oh, sorry Oh, how sad Oh, sad She cries, "I can't make it alone, [hey hey hey] 'cause I fear is for my life Here on my own." "Yes, and I'm never goin' back to where I'm from, [hey yeah] Back to that place we all know is hum-drum." And pretty the face that she's wearing What she's taking, I was preparing Just so she can be somehow perfect, perfect And yes, a price was paid And although best plans were laid And lonely is in line so And by this she stands and stays. [hey hey hey] She cries, "I can't make it alone, [hey hey hey] 'cause I fear is for my life Here on my own." "Yes, and I'm never goin' back to where I'm from, [hey yeah] Back to that place we all know is hum-drum." Perfect, perfect... --- .
