All Dressed Up Lyrics

Whatever happened to the girl down the street

The one with such life in her eyes

Always dancing to her own crazy beat

And every day another surprise

Well people change

People grow

People break but I don't know

How you became the girl I saw in the video

So take a sec

Close your eyes

Recollect and realize

That your reflection's not the girl in my mind

It's like you're all dressed up with nowhere to go

You bought the shoes and the clothes

And you're putting on a show

Heads up, yeah, dress up is fine

But baby, true love is blind

So don't you ever let it go

Don't you ever let it go

See I remember back in 1994

We'd hang for nights and for days

Couldn't wait for what the world had in store

Just living life with hearts all ablaze

Yeah that was then, and this is now

But once again, I don't know how

You can pretend to be a whole different person

So take a breath and take my hand

I've got no test, I've got no plan

Just a feeling we were right from the start

It's like you're all dressed up with nowhere to go

You bought the shoes and the clothes

And you're putting on a show

Heads up, yeah, dress up is fine

But baby, true love is blind

So don't you ever let it go

Don't you think that it's time

To sober up and reprioritize

Turn your eyes in the right direction

And listen closely to this boy's confession

You're so much more

Than who you are

Yeah, underneath you're a star

Yeah, underneath you're a star

It's like you're all dressed up with nowhere to go

You bought the shoes and the clothes

And you're putting on a show

Heads up, yeah, dress up is fine

But baby, true love is blind

So don't you ever let it go

You're all dressed up with nowhere to go
