Jewel - Good lyrics

Your rating:

It's four in the afternoon

I'm on a flight leaving L.A.

Trying to think about my life

My youth scattered along the highway



Hotel rooms and headlines

I've made a living with a song

Guitar as my companion

Wanting desperately to belong



Fame is filled with spoiled children

They grow fat on fantasy

I guess that's why I'm leaving

I crave reality





So goodbye Alice in Wonderland

Goodbye yellow brick road

There is a difference between dreaming and pretending

I did not find paradise

It was only a reflection of my lonely mind wanting

For whats been missing in my life





I'm embarassed to say the rest is a rock and roll cliche

I hit the bottom when I reached the top

I never knew it was you who was breaking my heart

I thought you had to love me

But you did not



Yes, a heart can hallucinate

If it's completely starved for love

It can even turn monsters into 

Angels from above



You forged my love just like a weapon

And turned it against me like a knife

You broke my last heartstring

But you opened up my eyes





So goodbye Alice in Wonderland

Goodbye yellow brick road

There is a difference between dreaming and pretending

That was not love in your eyes

It was only a reflection of my lonely mind searching

For whats been missing in my life





And growing up is not an absence of dreaming

Its being able to understand the difference between

The ones you can hold and the ones that you've been sold

But dreaming is a good thing

Cause it brings new things to life

Pretending is an ending

That perpetuates a lie

Forgetting what you are

Seeing for what you've been told



Truth is stranger than fiction

And this is my chance to get it right

Life is much better without all of those pretty lies



So Goodbye Alice in Wonderland

You can keep your yellow brick road

Cause there is a difference between dreaming and pretending

These are not tears in my eyes

They are only a reflection of my lonely mind finding

They are only a reflection of my lonely mind finding

I've found whats missing in my life
