Wish that someone would tell me
What is normal
Don't think I know what normal is no more
Normal's not these feelings I have for you
My head and my heart
In a constant tug of war
All I want is a little bit of joy
Can't we be just a girl and just a boy
Just a girl and just a boy
I know we got ourselves
A strange dynamic
And there ain't no way we can get around it
It breaks my heart to know
We can't cobble it together
No matter how hard we pound it
All I want is a little bit of joy
Can't we be just a girl and just a boy
I will be your Paris and you will be Helen of Troy
Just a girl and just a boy
I know we don't stand
A snowball's chance in hell
But I wanna believe that we can beat the odds
Not everything's gotta be
A tragedy
Playing out like some mythical Greek gods
