lyrics

There was a girl with a crooked smile, who walked herself a crooked mile
Only to end up back where she began
Fumbling around in the dark, searching for that little spark
But things never go according to her plan

There was a time she knew precisely, what she wanted for her life
But those ideas they fade after a while
And with ever little disappointment, she felt a little bit more disjointed
And became the girl with the crooked smile

I know you will find a way... eventually
It's just a matter of recognising... opportunity
It's scary as hell to take that step I know
But when holding on is worse than letting go
You let go... You let go

Touching down in Melbourne town, where her happy thoughts they go to drown
This city will never ever have her heart
Sure they had fun for a little while, but wearing black just ain't her style
And she's counting down the days 'til they can part

Looking at grey clouds and rain, she's letting go of all her pain
The sky was just a mirror to inside
A little sense of deja vu, this half-loving she outgrew
It's time for changing with the tide

I know you will find a way... eventually
It's just a matter of recognising... opportunity
It's scary as hell to take that step I know
But when holding on is worse than letting go
You let go... You let go

That girl with the crooked smile, walked herself a crooked mile
And now she's doing everything she can
