Little Girl

Mother never told you, that’s all right Don’t you cry Now the visions dance inside your head What was said? Go to bed What have you done, done to yourself? What will you do if I just leave you alone inside, little girl? Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide except inside, little girl In the tapestries with faded clowns All year ‘round Bringing you down Trying to escape in your own ways How can you see with your head in the clouds? What will you do if I just leave you alone inside, little girl? Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide except inside, little girl You carry the weight of the world No one expects you to bear that burden If you can let it all go Even the daze will seem so much brighter Every night holds a surprise for you What will you do if I just leave you alone inside, little girl? Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide except inside, little girl What will you do if I just leave you alone inside, little girl? Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide except inside, little girl... Girl...
