Cheap Champagne

(album: Parallel Play - 2008)

She kept her feet on the ground
Her hair was a cloud that the sun illuminated
Cheap champagne all around
The jukebox predicted her song

See how she moves through the city streets
V is for victory
But have you seen the company she keeps?
Now what I've learned to come to expect
Well, it's hard, but in some respects
That when I look into her eyes
You know, it never meant that much to me, ooh

She kept her feet on the ground
Her hair was a cloud that the sun illuminated
Cheap champagne all around
The jukebox predicted her song

We said, "You've changed"
She said, "You've not"
And that's when I realized
I should have connected all the dots
How much of this world do we accept
And just how much do we reject?
But when I look into her eyes
The question vanishes in front of me, ooh

She kept her feet on the ground
Her hair was a cloud that the sun illuminated
Cheap champagne all around
The jukebox predicted her song

Blew in, then gone again
The photograph wouldn't fit into the frame
Well, where or when?
A destiny to fan the final flame

She kept her feet on the ground
Her hair was a cloud that the sun illuminated
Cheap champagne all around
The jukebox predicted her song
