Lyrics of The Way You Are by Last Dinosaurs
verse
Marching through the neighborhood at night
She′s happy 'cause the moon is full and bright
I had to tell her
I think she′s rarer than a shooting star
Probably sent here to break hearts
And now I'm sitting at the back of class
Trying to forget the past
chorus
Might be like suicide
But I don't care, life′s not fair
Those eyes changed my life
Can′t help but stare at the girl with the long hair
verse
She doesn't like the colour of her eyes
Her father′s always feeding her with lies
I had to tell ya
I don't know how I′m really supposed to be
Honestly, it is beyond me
I hope you never run away from here
Promise me, promise me, please
chorus
Might be like suicide
But I don't care, life′s not fair
Those eyes changed my life
Can't help but stare at the girl with the long hair
bridge
And when the curtains close
She likes to hide inside her mind
Like something went wrong
And if she wants to sink to the bottom
All I can say is
I won't pretend
chorus
Might be like suicide
But I don′t care, life′s not fair
Those eyes changed my life
Can't help but stare at the girl with the long hair
