True Romantic

I open shop and sit

and wait a while,

and fake a smile

So no one can tell it's raining

inside of my head

I sit and smile at all

the passers by,

but on the sly

I'm quietly wishing

that they were all dead

But call me crazy call me vain but you know I'll say it

again and again

That I'm not so useless I don't complain when my luck is down

Tomorrow's another day, tomorrow's another day

I know for certain I'm an outlaw here, a misfit it's clear

Who can't stand TV and

smoking's no good for my head

My guess is by the time I'm far from here,

my head will clear

And I could feel as worthy as anyone else

But call me crazy, call me daft

but I'm the only true romantic left

and I'm not so useless I don't complain

when my luck is down

Tomorrow's another day, tomorrow's another day

And when I get to dreaming,

I dream of far off places

I dream of green wide spaces,

long and meaningful embraces

I dream of conversation,

and dream of tall dark handsome

away away away

But call me crazy call me vain

but you know I'll say it again and again

that I'm not so useless I don't complain

when my luck is down

Call me crazy call me daft,

but I'm the only true romantic left

I'm not so useless I don't complain

when my luck is down

tomorrow's another day, tomorrow's another day

Call me crazy call me vain

but you know I'll say it again and again

that I'm not so useless oh no no no no

Call me crazy call me daft,

but I'm the only true romantic left

I'm not so useless oh no no no fades out
