Those girls are laughing now   They take my breath away   And all these dreams I've had   Come back to me      The light is never on   They haven't fixed it yet   But catholic girls, they never fear   They grew up with that      Those girls are always dreaming   They need your sympathy   Their vision's fading now   Changing by degree      So take me away   Life is never this strange   Counting your blessings   When you're out of rain      Those girls are laughing now   They take my breath away   In all these dreams I've had   The dead girls say      Counting our blessings like an extra day   We turn and walk away   Counting our blessings like an extra day   Prayed you wouldn't stay      The dead girls never care   They never were that way   The dead girls never speak   Not today
