Miss America

Miss America - James Blunt

Did someone give you something

To help you ease the pain

Like the liquor in the bottle

We watched you slip away

And I feel like if I know you

Through the buzz of a song

Always surrounded but alone

No goodbyes

You'll always be miss America

We watched you fly

But nothing's free miss America

And as you fall apart

We just call it art

Was it so hard to breathe

Was that picture in the paper

Not the face you recognise

Did the make up never make up

For the pain behind your eyes

Cause I feel as if I know you

When you're on my silver screen

But I don't know

The dark places that you've been

But no goodbyes

You'll always be miss America

We watched you fly

But nothing's free miss America

And as you fall apart

We just call it odd

Was it so hard to breathe

Does another voice sing

In heaven's choir tonight

To fill the silence left behind

And I don't know

What goes on in your mind

I'm sure it's enough to make me cry

Someday we'll find you'll live forever

No goodbyes

You'll always be miss America

We watched you fly

But nothing's free miss America

And as you fall apart

We just call it odd

Was it so hard to breathe
