Lyrics

When Jean changed her world, she became a chorus girl
In feathers and sequins and long strings of pearls
But nobody liked the sound of her voice
Too thick like molasses, too foreign and coy
In Bloomsbury square, we counted the birds
I said to the magpie, "I'm the shiniest girl"
We lived out of cafes and bars through the winter
How did we pare the love down to a splinter?
Well Jean, she grew thin, I regret she's a drinker
In our basement room, the storm's just a shiver
But out on the street, the lights hum and flicker
Jean, do you remember how we danced through the glitter?
Jean, do you remember how we danced through the glitter?
Jean, do you remember how we danced through the glitter?
Jean, do you remember how we danced
And my god's a good god, you say with a whisper
But no god is true and I swear I'm not bitter
But I used to dream of towers and pillars
And I still believe in red neon flickers
Do you think one day, baby, I'll be rich or pretty?
Do you think one day, baby, I'll move back to the city?
Do you think all the birds still flock to the square?
And do you think if I looked, I might find you there?
