Don't tell me you wanna be The kind of girl drowning And don't be holding on to anything That's gonna keep you frowning, darling
Everyone's compelled look into the mirror When crying Just because your tears are pretty Doesn't mean they'll get you by
Chorus Sing me sad song and make me feel better Sing me a happy song and I might start to cry Because everything feels it's going around in circles And everyone knows that the world upside down
You were once a little baby Full of optimistic wonder So what into you to make you think That it could pull you under, honey
Could it be that we were under The impression life was perfect? And the bubble burst We understood that every part of hurts
Chorus
I'm going to color my rose I'm going to go where the rainbow goes And my pot of gold will be waiting
