There’s a little girl next door
Every day he passes her,
And looks away
’cause he knows
She’d see right through him
(hey you little blue eyed girl)
Don’t you ask about
The world we live in
(than the world we live in)

Watching all the cars go by
Catching all the strangers eyes,
That she can
She sees though them
(hey you little blue eyed girl)
He wonder what it is she knows
And if he could ever be fearless once again

(2x):
In the end will we find out
All of the answers
Will we always need to pretend
When we step inside of the mirror
And in the end
Falling faster, falling back
Holding closer to the world we live in
(than the world we live in)

Never looks behind her back
Stepping over all the cracks
That time has made
They weren’t there when he was her age
Everday’s the same for him
Walking by he thinks of
What he was back then
(than the world we live in)

Easily they go away
All the rules that he was told
Those simple days
Everyone just moved away
(hey you little blue eyed girl)
Little girl where will you go
Won’t you stay outside
Just a little bit longer now?

(2x):
In the end will we find out
All of the answers
Will we always need to pretend
When we step inside of the mirror
And in the end
Falling faster, falling back
Holding closer to the world we live in
(than the world we live in)
