She held the world upon a string
But she didn't ever hold me 
Spun the stars on her fingernails 
But it never made her happy 
Cause she couldn't ever have me 

She said she won the world at a carnival 
But she could never win me 
Cause she couldn't ever catch me 

I, I know why 
Because when I look in her eyes 
I just see the sky 
When I look in her eyes 
Well I, just see the sky 

I don't love you I'm just passing the time 
You could love me if I knew how to lie 
But who could love me? 
I am out of my mind 
Throw an old line out to sea 
To see if I can catch a dream 

The sun was always in her eyes 
She didn't even see me 
But that girl had so much love 
She'd wanna kiss you all the time 
Yeah, she'd wanna kiss you all the time 

She said she won the world at a carnival 
But I'm sure it [bad word] her 
Just made her more interesting 
I'm sure it [bad word] her 
Just made her more interesting 

I, I know why 
Because when I look in her eyes 
I just see the sky 
When I look in her eyes 
Well I, I just see the sky 

I don't love you I'm just passing the time 
You could love me if I knew how to lie 
But who could love me? 
I am out of my mind 
Throw an old line out to sea 
To see if I can catch a dream
