Dead and Lovely

She was a middle class girl
In over her head
She thought she could stand up in the deep end
He had a bullet proof smile
He had money to burn
She thought that she had the moon in her pocket

But now she's dead
She's so dead
Forever dead and lovely now

I have always been told to remember this
Don't let a fool kiss you
Never marry for love

He had hearts to impress
He knew everyone's secrets
He wore her on his arm just like jewelry
He never gave but he got
He kept her on a leash
He's not the kind of wheel you fall asleep at

But now she's dead
She's so dead
Forever dead and lovely now

Come closer, look deeper
You have fallen fast, oh
Just like a plane on a stormy sea

But now she's dead
She's so dead
Forever dead and lovely now

But now she's dead
She's so dead
Forever dead and lovely now
