The Audition

[Verse 1]

She smiled, leapt

Without looking

And tumbled into the Seine

The water was freezing

She spent a month sneezing

But said she would do it again

[Chorus]

Here's to the ones who dream

Foolish as they may seem

Here's to the hearts that ache

Here's to the mess we make

[Verse 2]

She captured a feeling

Sky with no ceiling

The sunset inside a frame

She lived in her liquor

And died with a flicker

I'll always remember the flame

[Chorus]

Here's to the ones who dream

Foolish as they may seem

Here's to the hearts that ache

Here's to the mess we make

[Verse 3]

She told me

"A little madness is key

To give us new colors to see

Who knows where it will lead us?

And that's why they need us"

[Bridge]

So bring on the rebels

The ripples from pebbles

The painters, and poets, and plays

[Outro]

And here's to the fools who dream

Crazy as they may seem

Here's to the hearts that break

Here's to the mess we make
