She's strutting down the street. With a diamond necklace. The size of a dime. It looks real nice. When it shines. It lights up the world around her. But it's only in her mind. He's speeding up the road. In his red ferrari. Goes so fast always in a hurry. What's the point if ya get dead in the scurry. You'll be leaving it all behind. What a shame it is (doesn't' have to be that way). So lame it is (gonna have to pay to play). A game like this (that's the way it is). Unless ya know. What's real. Is the beauty inside your soul. What's real. Is that everyone's gonna get old. What's real. Is the time that you take to check in. Not the sale of material things. They fade. And all you're left with is how ya feel. And that's what's real. She gotta go gotta fly. Doesn't stop to kiss her kid. Be good is all she said. As she's grabbing her keys and escaping her life. She said she'd be home soon but she lied. And her kid tells her friends at school. That her mom is really cool. Smiles for the camera. Gets her face in all the magazines. It's a superficial beauty scene. And they keep in touch (but she's such a lonely girl). But it don't mean much (livin' in a lonely world). 'cause I heard her say (tryin to be brave she). Can't help her wondering. [Chorus]. Love each other while u still got time. Tell your mother she's been on your mind. Kiss your brother just 'cause he looks fine. Wear the red dress. Love at first sight. Put the top down. Feel the sunshine. [Chorus]
