You're always there with a skip in your step

And a grin from the heart

That parts to make way for a laugh

That makes everything bearable

God, what I'd give to love living like you do

Believe me, I've tried

I'm so sick to my guts of how shitty I feel

All the time, all the time

I'm on the outside looking in

On your dream-like life

Drowning and desperate for help, I cling

To your lifeboat smile

From your window, I can see this whole town

This high up it's a long way down

But you float on by as I try not to fall

How do you do it, girl?

Let me in to your world

This purest light, untouched by song or smile

It burns my weaker mind

How on earth can you survive?

What innocence could thrive behind those bright little eyes

And not be paralysed

In every single moment it's alive?

From your window, I can see this whole town

This high up it's a long way down

But you float on by as I try not to fall

How do you do it, girl?

Show me the ways of your world
