[Verse 1]
|
|
I'm sure to find true love
|
Under angel wings
|
Assured and locked so tight
|
I know she's whispering
|
Alone and savoring
|
Life alone tonight
|
She's coming out to greet
|
A world so wont of light
|
Her first time exposed to
|
The games and bitter ends
|
Her last time to feel clean
|
In broken English she says
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
"I lost everything
|
To one boy who said he was mine
|
He said he'd hold me forever"
|
Now she's sitting on my floor
|
Pulling out her hair to ease
|
That she's not sleeping again
|
|
[Verse 2]
|
|
This cotton down it feels
|
So much more like home
|
The memories creep in
|
She closes both her eyes
|
She's walking out into
|
The night for the first time
|
Completely unprepared
|
For the thousandth time
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
[Bridge x2]
|
|
The first time that I saw those eyes
|
Was the first time I came undone
|
Oh Mary look what you've done to me
|
Oh Mary look what you've done
|
|
[Verse 3]
|
|
I can't forget this night
|
Another left another right
|
How did I ever get away
|
The door was locked the key unmade
|
Out for the last time life ends here
|
There is no next time gas is full
|
A vehicle that ends all fear
|
