Audrey was a girl that sat in my classroom
|
she never said a word
|
she just sat there furtively
|
I never noticed her until I heard the radio
|
telling about the way she took her life
|
today it's all upon the covers of the papers
|
about her folk at home
|
I guess her daddy's a drinker
|
her mommy left her
|
when she was just a little child
|
oh tell me Audrey, was it the first time
|
you felt abounding ness
|
|
hold on baby
|
don't be sorry
|
every day has it's ups and downs
|
hold on baby
|
there will be sunshine
|
every life has it's stormy nights
|
|
comes to think about it
|
there is some things that can't be called
|
about her arms
|
they had blue spots on them
|
I remember to think
|
it starts to myself
|
is it wrong to wonder about somebody else problems
|
I'm not burning with at all
|
|
hold on baby,...
|
...that she lays down on the bottoms of the river
|
tell me what crime did it take
|
to take this girls only willingness
|
but I will pray
|
that someday, she'll rise again!
|
|
If you're out there
|
I hope you can see my sorrow
|
and pain of guilt
|
I never asked you how you were
|
but one thing I can assure you
|
after witnessing what is been done
|
I will open my heart to the new girl
|
that sits next door!
|
hold on baby,...
