Plain Jane lyrics

Artist  : John Miles 
Song : Plain Jane



 Send "Plain Jane" Ringtone to your Cell 

 Even as a little girl who's playing out of
school,

You wanted everyone to know your name.

Makin' sure you had the best

Just to stand out from the rest

And nothing any less could be the same.



People all around you could always be
replaced,

So those you didn't need were pushed aside.

You would use them for a while

'Till their face went out of style.

Then say: "Goodbye, and thank you for the
ride!".



Plain Jane, chasing rainbows, building castles in
the sky,

Plain Jane, chasing rainbows, make the end before
you die.

Not for you a poor man's son,

Your dreams of fortune have begun

And once you're off the ground, you have to
fly.



Now the girl with everything is feeling
insecure,

Your smile is never all that it appears.

And the lady debonair

Who would never have a care

Fights harder every day to hide the tears.  

 

Time goes by, the spotlight fades,

You're standing in the dark.

A mystic left with no more spells to weave.

Like a lazy afternoon

That has passed you by too soon,

And all the things you had were make believe.



Plain Jane, chasing rainbows, building castles in
the sky,

Plain Jane, chasing rainbows, make the end before
you die.

Not for you a poor man's son,

Your dreams of fortune have begun,

And once you're off the ground, you have to
fly.



Plain Jane, chasing rainbows, building castles in
the sky.

Plain Jane, chasing rainbows, make the end before
you die.

Not for you a poor man's son,

Your dreams of fortune have begun,

And once you're off the ground,

Once you're off the ground,

Once you're off the ground, you have to fly.

And once you're off the ground, you have to fly.
