She wakes up, she finds herself sleeping in a doorway
|
Wondering how she ever got that way
|
She fights her tears away, then prays for no more sorrow
|
Will tomorrow be the same as yesterday
|
|
She tasted from the tree of life which lead to hunger
|
Now she wonders how she'll ever carry on
|
She thinks about the life she knew when she was younger
|
Heaven help her now those days are long since gone
|
|
She wakes up, she finds herself sleeping next to no one
|
And it's no fun when there's no one's there to see
|
She looks down at her feet, "My God, they sure look dirty
|
7:30, time to be or not to be"
|
|
She cries out, "Won't somebody listen to my story
|
Mournin' glories aren't supposed to happen today
|
She wakes up, she finds herself sleeping in a doorway
|
Wondering how she ever got that way
|
