Mr. Big - American Beauty

She said she couldn't do it if she tried But she never tried, she'll never try It's running through her veins like cyanide It gets her by, but just for a while How long, can she keep on chasing something wrong? Memories, of how she could've made it The waves are crashing down, she's caught in the undertow Drowning in the sea, yeah She's looking for a light but there's nowhere to go Undertow She sees the world through hazy blood-shod eyes just looking for another high She lives by golden rules that don't apply Life passed her by, and I tell you why How long, can she keep on chasing something wrong? Memories, of how she could've made it The waves are crashing down, she's caught in the undertow Drowning in the sea, oh-oh She's looking for a light but there's nowhere to go Undertow How long, can she keep on chasing something wrong? Memories, of how she could've made it The waves are crashing down, she's caught in the undertow Drowning in the sea, yeah yeah She's looking for a light but there's nowhere to go The waves are crashing down, she's caught in the undertow Drowning in the sea, oh yeah She's looking for a light but there's nowhere to go Undertow
