Stephanie

Her name is Stephanie

She lives about a thousand miles away from me

It took about a second, a smile, a thousand freckles

To set me free

Oh how cliché

A stranger’s city, random party, rainy Saturday

I was downing drinks to drown the sorrow

Just to run away

And then a lightning strike just fills the place

A reflection of a familiar face

I only saw before with my eyes closed

I guess I knew right from the start

It was either a stroke or a racing heart

That I just met my missing part

Her name is Stephanie

I couldn’t get enough of her, she couldn’t get enough of me

But in the back room of the pub her friend was throwing up

She had to leave

The morning came

I texted her, she texted back a photo of a plane

I’m downing drinks to drown tomorrow

And live in yesterday

When a lightning strike just filled the place

A reflection of a familiar face

I only saw before with my eyes closed

And I guess I knew right from the start

It was either a stroke or a racing heart

I just met my missing part

Love ain’t real for people like me

And love ain’t real for people like me

Happiness ain’t real for people like me

Stephanie

No, love ain’t real for people like me

No, love ain’t real for people like me

Happiness ain’t real for people like me

Stephanie

Oh, oh

Happiness ain’t real for people like me

And love ain’t real for people like me

Happiness ain’t real for people like me

Love ain’t real for people like me

Oh, Stephanie
