Miss Gainesville

Marco Mast, Marc Lüdi, Christoph Schmid

I had many dances
Sweet chances
In my hey-day
Words used to get whispered
About my romances
And the one that got away

Back, when I was someone
Or was I something
It's hard to say
A ring for every story
In my days of glory
Far far away

My silver Shelby and my shiny boots
Still trace back to my roots
Miss Gainesville 98
That's what it says on my numberplate

My silver Shelby and my shiny boots
Still trace back to my roots

Now, these days are over
And I'm moving slower
I lost it somehow
Those whispered romances
Now merely missed chances
They just get me down

I wish that I had a mirror
Which wasn't a cheerer
I'm Miss Dorian Gray
I toast on all my lovers
Cheeky under the covers
I woke up alone

My silver Shelby and my shiny boots
Still trace back to my roots
Miss Gainesville 98
That's what it says on my numberplate

My silver Shelby and my shiny boots
Still trace back to my roots

Homecoming queen on the interstate
That's what it says on my numberplate
Homecoming queen on the interstate
I, Miss Gainesville 98
