There was another girl She was much like you She lived in the past And had trouble with the future Well, she walked with her head held high And her hands held down at the sides It was everything that I had not wanted There were reasons to be crazy (Chorus) Make no mistake about it (When she stopped crying her eyes got bright) Make no mistake about it (She walked with her head held high and her hands held down at her sides) Make no mistake about it ( Make no mistake about it... those were real tears) Make no mistake about it (Make no mistake about it... I've always been unreal) And you walked a thousand miles in a few weeks Very little love exists through the rain and the fog In her always hanging mirror It was everything that I had not wanted There were reasons to be crazy Repeat Chorus (Back-up vocals same as first chorus. Repeat chorus to 3rd line then add:) Those were real tears Make no mistake about it I've always been unreal She takes a lot of time sometimes It takes a lot of time to know her She will disappear before you Right in front of your very eyes Down through the years She has accepted her life With her hands held down in fear Take a tear of a rose and push it into your hands These are real tears (Repeat Chorus) It was everything I had not wanted Whoa, there were reasons to be crazy And all the reasons Well, that she was just like you So she keeps them in her heart So she keeps them in her heart
