Lyrics
Tim
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
If you got a picture of your face
Could you leave it on your way out the door?
I don't care if it's color or black or white
I just need something to remember you by
Oh, before my life went dim
(Before my life went dim)
Oh, before my life went dim
(Before my life went dim)
No one told me the trouble I was in
Before my life went dim
I painted half my face so green
Don't you know I painted half my face blue?
In hopes of showing you both sides of me
(both sides of me)
I guess it came down to "don't you love me?"
(don't you love me?)
Oh, before my life went dim
(Before my life went dim)
Oh, before my life went dim
(Before my life went dim)
No one told me the trouble I was in
Before my life went dim
(solo)
Can't this car go any faster?
Can't this car go any faster?
Can't this car go any faster? (Faster, faster)
Can't this car go 'cause I can still see where I am
Oh, before my life went dim
(Before my life went dim)
Oh, before my life went dim
(Before my life went dim)
You shoulda told me the trouble I was in
Before my life went dim
