Mona Lisa

You're the last of your kind, Mona Lisa
With a wink of your eye
Ya make it all right
Oh there's more left to life, Mona Lisa
Let me take you along for the ride
Ain't nothing' that stays the same
Won't ask it a' you
Just that burgundy smile you wore yesterday
Say ya won't ever lose
I been down, I been worse
Mona Lisa
Came in last, came in first
But it all gathers dirt, Mona Lisa
'Fore ya bathe in the light
Ain't nothing' that stays the same
Won't ask it a' you
Just that burgundy smile you wore yesterday
Say ya won't ever lose
Oh ya taught me this much, Mona Lisa
I done set it aside
For when you need the same magic touch
For when you need remindin'
Ain't nothing that stays the same
Won't ask it a' you
Just that burgundy smile you wore yesterday
Say ya won't ever lose
Just that burgundy smile you wore yesterday
Say ya won't ever lose
