Audrey

You remind me of Audrey Hepburn

Pearls around the neck

I want to buy you things I can't afford yet

Never seen your soul

And as I wait to cross the street

I see you there, looking like a memory

Under the neon lights turned sepia

Like we were in the 70's

And when you said my name, heard it echoing

Like you were still in frame

With my heart on strings

It was three long nights

You would keep me up, I listen to your melody

'Cause it's all monochromatic

Except for the red on your lips

You remind me of Audrey Hepburn

Pearls around the neck

I want to buy you things I can't afford yet

Never seen a soul so gorgeous

And you remind me of Audrey Hepburn

Hands around my neck

You make it hard to breathe

But that is fine by me

Wherever you are

Wherever you are

Wherever you are

Wherever you are

Golden age of twenty-three

I say you're heavenly, but you disagree

Well, let's talk about it

Over breakfast in the morning

Oh, in a smoke-filled room

Grabbing, gasping, I search for you

And damn it, baby, I'll choke every time

If it means I can find

The divine things you hide deep inside you

'Cause it's all monochromatic

Except for the red on your lips

You remind me of Audrey Hepburn

Pearls around the neck

I want to buy you things I can't afford yet

Never seen a soul so gorgeous

And you remind me of Audrey Hepburn

Hands around my neck

You make it hard to breathe

But that is fine by me

Wherever you are

Wherever you are

Wherever you are

Wherever you are

'Cause it's all monochromatic

Except for the red on your lips

You remind me of Audrey Hepburn

Pearls around the neck

I want to buy you things I can't afford yet

Never seen a soul so gorgeous

And you remind me of Audrey Hepburn

Hands around my neck

You make it hard to breathe

But that is fine by me

Wherever you are

Wherever you are

Wherever you are

Wherever you are
