Just a girl in a photograph
|
Wearing the dress that I wear now
|
A pretty face in fields of grey
|
It's sad to see that nothing seems to change
|
|
She's running from the boy in the schoolyard
|
She's running through the field to the open barn
|
They're laughing as the sun dances round her
|
A little life within her takes it place inside her starts to grow
|
|
She cuts the seams of a favourite frock
|
She sits and listens to the old church clock
|
Oh daddy daddy don't send me away
|
Never been a bad girl I swear that nothing's changed
|
|
She's running from the face of her father
|
She's running from the silence in a crowded room
|
She's running from the ring that he gave her
|
The leaded sound of promises
|
The feeling that's inside her starts to grow
|
|
A dark day becomes a cold, cold night
|
A fading light to bear a newborn life
|
Two voices fade into one
|
She closed her eyes with the rising sun
|
|
She's running to the arms of an angel
|
She's running from the only place she's ever known
|
She's running with her heart left behind her
|
They knew when they found her that they just couldn't hurt her anymore
|
|
She's running from the face of her father
|
She's running from the silence in a crowded room
|
She's running from the ring that he gave her
|
They knew when they found her that they just couldn't hurt her anymore
|
|
Just a girl in a photograph
|
Wearing the dress that I wear now
|
A pretty face in fields of grey
|
It's sad to see that nothing seems to change
|

She Ran
