Some Will Rake the Coals |
A perfect stranger might could make you smile, |
Might could take your mind off your despair for half a while, |
But time moves quickly, strangers look like friends, |
Friends might fall in love and perfect strangers might pretend |
And so it happens, |
Take a look around, |
Some will rake the coals |
And some will burn a wedding gown. |
The sad romantics fail to grasp the world, |
Fail to recognize there ain’t no perfect boy or girl |
And so keep fumbling, feelin’incomplete, |
Makin’love and breakin’hearts and searchin’on the street |
And so it happens, |
Take a look around, |
Some will rake the coals |
And some will burn a wedding gown. |
And look at me |
(or maybe don’t, now) |
Hey, yeah, look at me |
(or maybe don’t, now) |
Look at me |
(or maybe don’t, now) |
Hey, yeah, look at me |
(or maybe don’t, now) |
And Charlie Chaplin had to realize |
Eighteen year old Oona made a golden final prize, |
And Warren Beatty must have gotten scared |
When Madonna made him fin’ly see he’d lost some hair |
And so it happens, |
Take a look around, |
Some will rake the coals |
And some will burn a wedding gown, |
Some will rake the coals |
And some will burn a wedding gown. |
