Skin feels softer than it was

The morning air is cool

My coffee’s never been like this before

As a general rule

 

I can’t remember why I’m sad

But then I go and do

A simple movement in an empty room

My mind is split in two

 

Feel like a Mona Lisa on a Sunday morning

My eyes are smiling but I can’t keep hanging around

I know at the most I

 

I only get a sideways glance

Before I look away (look away, look away, look away)

My back is burned by the sun you know

It happens every day

 

I’m shouting but my mouth is closed

My eyes are red and blue 

(Red and blue, red and blue, red and blue)

One frozen moment in a memory

One lace to tie my shoe

 

Feel like a Mona Lisa on a Sunday morning

My eyes are smiling but I can’t keep hanging around

You know it’s always got to play its part

 

The heart is a dangerous thing

Ten out of ten for getting that right

It’s taken out of your hands

Curve of the earth

No clear line of sight

 

The secret is to understand

The light can cut right through

And there’s no chance of you forgetting me

And I’ll remember you

 

Feel like a Mona Lisa on a Sunday morning

My eyes are smiling but I can’t keep hanging around

You know it’s always gonna break your heart

 

Mona Lisa on a Sunday morning

My eyes are smiling but I can’t keep hanging around

You know it’s always gonna break your heart
