Lush - Olympia lyrics

Will I ever be Olympia? Will I ever be a girl like her? Will I ever have to say the word And instantly I'll be adored? Could I ever deign to have the look Instead of have to read a book? Will I ever be Olympia? Will I ever be a girl like her? And if ever there's a will There's a place in Notting Hill You can go and visit still And if ever there's a way To find a hopeful ray Will I find it today? Will I ever be Olympia? Could I ever have a cat like her? Could I ever lie around all day Eating chocolate and marmalade? Now it's time to find the perfect world Dress myself up like the perfect girl Could I ever be Olympia? Could I ever be in love like her? In the chaos of our lives Can we ever find the time To cherish feeling fine And in the aftermath of pain Can the balance be regained? Can we ever be the same? And now, time to switch off Sit down, turn the lights off Lie back, treat this sofa like your own Look out, here comes trouble Look out, we're in a muddle Keep running 'til you find you've reached your home Could I ever be Olympia? In the chaos of our lives Can we ever find the time To cherish feeling fine And in the aftermath of pain Can the balance be regained? Can we ever be the same?
