Absolutely (Story of a Girl)

This is the story of a girl
 Who cried a river and drowned the whole world
 And while she looked so sad in photographs
 I absolutely love her
 When she smiles
 How many days in a year?
 She woke up with hope, but she only found tears
 And I can be so insincere
 Making her promises never for real
 As long as she stands there waiting
 Wearing the holes in the soles of her shoes
 How many days disappear when you look in the mirror
 So how do you choose?
 Your clothes never wear as well the next day
 And your hair never falls in quite the same way
 You never seem to run out of things to say
 This is the story of a girl
 Who cried a river and drowned the whole world
 And while she looked so sad in photographs
 I absolutely love her
 When she smiles
 How many lovers would stay
 Just to put off with this every day and all day?
 And how did we wind up this way
 Watching our mouths for the words that we say?
 As long as we stand here waiting
 Wearing the clothes of the souls that we choose
 How do we get there today?
 When we're walking too far for the price of our shoes
 Your clothes never wear as well the next day
 And your hair never falls in quite the same way
 But you never seem to run out of things to say
 This is the story of a girl
 Who cried a river and drowned the whole world
 And while she looked so sad in photographs
 I absolutely love her
 When she smiles
