Vanessa Carlton

She'd do anything to sparkle in his eye.
She would suffer she would fight and compromise.
She's been wishing on the stars that shine so bright.
For answers to questions that will haunt her tonight
She must rinse this all away.
She can't hold him this way.
She must rinse this all away.
She can't love him this way.
How she'd be soothed how she'd be saved if he could see,
She needs to be held in his arms to be free.
But everything happens for reasons that she will never understand.
'Til she knows that the heart of a woman will never be found in the arms of a man.
She must rinse this all away.
She can't hold anybody this way.
She must rinse this all away.
She can't love him
And as she runs away she fears she won't be followed.
What could be worse than leaving something behind?
