Sally
Vice Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I wonder what happened to your mind
Why can't we try it one more time
Why do rainbows only shine when there's been rain
Don't let the curtain fall, lets break these chains

Don't hide your feelings, show me every day
And look in my eyes, I'm begging you to stay
Sally, dreams are made to change (Sally)
But I can't take you anymore this way (Sally)
Sally, imagine what you put me through (Sally)
I can't stand it losing you

I've been mistreated, but I fight and died for you
'Cause I left behind it, I only wanna make it
Make it all come true, baby, baby now
I'm waiting here for you

Don't hide your feelings, show me every day
And look in my eyes, I'm begging you to stay

Sally, dreams are made to change (Sally)
But I can't take you anymore this way (Sally)
Sally, imagine what you put me through (Sally)
'Cause I can't stand it losing you, no, no

Sally, dreams are made to change, oh, no, no (Sally)
But I can't take you anymore this way (Sally)
Sally, imagine what you put me through
Ooh, Sally, no more (Sally)




I can't stand it losing you
I can't take it, baby (Sally)
