Could I act like you, and put a smile on my face
Not even for a second, would I lie to myself
Too many things are missing, and there's a tear in my eye
It's not a question or an answer, but it will change your mind

We'll be the same tomorrow, 'cause we all 've been painted by numbers
We dance and I shall follow,
You said it was love,
I said I'd like you to be mine

Nanana nana nanana nana nanana nanana naa

I couldn't act like you, but I can love like you do
Between us there is something, I can't explain it to you

We'll be the same tomorrow, 'cause we all 've been painted by numbers
We dance and I shall follow,
You said it was love,
I got what I need to get by

We'll be the same tomorrow, 'cause we all 've been painted by numbers
We dance and I shall follow,
You said it was love,
I said I'd like you to be mine

Nanana nana nanana nana nanana nanana naa
Nanana nana nanana nana nanana nanana naa

We'll be the same tomorrow, 'cause we all 've been painted by numbers
We dance and I shall follow

Sing a song for sorrow, 'cause we all 've been painted by numbers
We dance and I shall follow,
You said it was love,
I got what I need to get by
