Annie Lennox
Pale
[Verse 1]
Happiness was like a dress that covered up my silhouette
But I’m naked now
I got exposed to undertones
Those shaky clouds of vertigo
That wear me down

[Pre-Chorus]
I look up at the bright stars
Get jealous of their glow
'Cause for now I’m

[Chorus]
Pale
I’m pale like the moonlight
So alone in dark skies
Pale
I used to see in colour
But then the days got duller for me
Got pale eyes and pale skin
My pale heart’s like porcelain
Got cracked to pieces
Pale
I hope that I fly through the night
And find you there
[Verse 2]
The time the choir sang that song
And even though the words were wrong
It felt right to me
I see the beauty in the blues
They hit you hard and leave a bruise
I feel melody

[Pre-Chorus]
And still the stars are shining
But they’re so far away
'Cause for now I’m

[Chorus]
Pale
I’m pale like the moonlight
So alone in dark skies
Pale
I used to see in colour
But then the days got duller for me
Got pale eyes and pale skin
My pale heart’s like porcelain
Got cracked to pieces
Pale
I hope that I fly through the night
And lie by your side
And find you there
