Anna Waronker - Fortunes of MisfortuneLyrics

We were just girls When we looked into each other's eyes We owned the world We didn't know we'd have to die for it You knew I'd have to quit And I knew I'd never see you again We were just girls When we kissed each other's lips We didn't know that it meant something More to me and to you You had to go when I told you no And I knew I'd never see you again We were not friends It was different than that We had a love 'til the end That was beautiful and dying Who could have told? The fortunes of the misfortunes we would hold? And I never thought that we would grow old together You wanted to be beautiful You thought you were a star And now that everything has disappeared You are who you are We were just girls And we never understood That this is the world Where things are rarely rarely good And I knew you'd have to go The moment that I told you no And I knew I'd never see you again I'd never see you again, ever again You wanted to be a big big star Now you are who you are You wanted to be a big big star Now you are who you are You wanted to be a big big star Now you are who you are You wanted to be a big big star Now you are who you are
