Goodbye Douglas Songtext
von Negative/Positive

See the way she smiles when I let her hold me tight
Oh, I′ve learned the way she laughs when we're staying up all night
Oh no, you wouldn′t want to let her go
Used to be just us, then you came marching in
And I watched her blow away, oh, so softly on the wind
Oh no, I didn't want to let her go
She may not be perfect, but she's wonderful to me
And you don′t appreciate how golden she can be
Oh no, this is all for show
And I see her sip lemonade in the festival, in the shade
Sleeping with a tree
Then I see you take her away from me

You′re the ordinary to her extraordinary
She's revolutionary
You′re over here just wearing khakis
You're the human manifestation of the color beige
Oh, she′s spectacular and you're no match to her
How can she be infatuated with someone just so crappy?
How could someone so wonderful end up with a Douglas?


Have you seen her eyes the way they sparkle in the light?
Have you noticed her passion, her fire? Oh my, how sad
This is just a fad
She′s a wildfire and you're a public swimming pool
You're just a grain of sand that′s stuck in my shoe
And she′s my precious jewel

You're the ordinary to her extraordinary
She′s revolutionary
You're over here just wearing khakis
You′re the human manifestation of the color beige
Oh, she's spectacular and you′re no match to her
How can she be infatuated with someone just so crappy?
How could someone so wonderful end up with a Douglas?

I know you don't need me to impose upon the things you chose
Because I'm not a part of them
And I know you are old enough to live by your own rules
As long as he′s just a harmless tool
Forget me not, baby, remember me always
Oh, you′ll never call me "darling"
As long as we're not parting, I′ll have to let it go
As long as I know this isn't goodbye for us


He′s the ordinary to your extraordinary
You're revolutionary
He′s over here just wearing khakis
He's the human manifestation of the color beige
Oh, you're spectacular and he′s no match to you
How can you be infatuated with someone just so crappy?
How could someone so wonderful end up with a
Someone so wonderful end up with a
Someone so wonderful end up with a Douglas?
