Kay Hanley - Faded Dress Lyrics

like a grade school valentine
my heart is asking and aching all the time
when are you gonna know?
this demon time
gets to moving awful slow
so let's talk about the way the world should be
it's not fair when i'm cast as gatsby
and i should have seen you coming
like a speeding car
but you know me
perennial cassandra
if you want to hurt me its an unqualified success
and i don't want to hang around like a faded dress
when i was young i thought
that i'd remember everything that
i'd been taught
now it's clear i never learned anything
'cause i come up empty
when it comes to you dear
so let's talk about just how it's gonna be
forget the love
and just bring the happy
and i got a sneaking feeling about you
such as you got other better things to do
if you want to hurt me it's an unqualified success
and i don't want to hang around like a faded dress
on the way out
if worry is the color of currency
then i've paid well for this movie
and i can't help but watch it
again and again
'cause at the end when i rewind it
you're right back with me
like a grade school valentine.....
and i got a sneaking feeling about you
such as you got other better things to do
if you want to hurt me it's an unqualified success.........
