Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You know that I love you so very much
But you're too far above someone like me to touch
Can't you see that a boy like me would be out of place?
Whoa, I'll never fit into your world of lavender lace
(Lavender, lavender lace)
[Verse 2]
We'll just have to stop this thing before it starts
The more we fall in love, the worse we'll break our hearts
With your velveteens, my old faded blue jeans would be out of place
Oh, I'll never fit into your world of lavender lace
(Lavender, lavender lace)
[Verse 3]
When we're here alone like this, it seems so right
But things will look so different in the morning's light
Your velveteens, my old faded blue jeans would be out of place
Oh, I'll just never fit into your world of lavender lace
(Lavender, lavender lace)
I'll never fit into your world of lavender lace
(Lavender, lavender lace)
No, I'll never fit into your world of lavender lace
(Lavender, lavender lace)
