Same Old Story Songtext

von Ultravox

Spotlight bright she's a diamond
Shining like a shooting star from in the sky
Sighs every night at the same time
Got to take a picture just to see her smile

It's the same old story, could write a novel about her eyes
Watch in wonder waiting, with anticipation,
Wanna be the one and only thing she could be breaking
She's so pretty, she says hello to the boys out of pity
She's so pretty, how could we want anyone, anyone but you
She likes to stare she likes to look through you
Sitting with her peers she's empty in first class
Found the one the one for the moment
Quicksand sitting in the hourglass, it's the
Same old story, you always want what you can't have
Likes to keep pretending, leaves it open ended
Living, breathing fairy tale that never should've ended
She's so pretty, her smile could light up this whole damn city
She's so pretty, how could we want anyone, anyone but you
