|
She's stroking her cat with her silken fingers |
|
A would-be charmer whose life's incomplete |
|
I'm working so hard to try and get to know her |
|
Her parents say who she sees and who she meets |
|
Always on her own |
|
Walking through the city |
|
Doesn't want to know |
|
If anyone should try to pick her up |
|
She'll put them down |
|
She only drinks at the dining table |
|
She's not allowed to stay up late at night |
|
Her only joy is the riding stable |
|
Her parents say what is wrong and what is right |
|
Always on her own |
|
Walking through the city |
|
Doesn't want to know |
|
If anyone should try to pick her up |
|
She'll put them down |
|
The day will come when she'll see the time she's wasted |
|
She's twenty-one and without their guiding light |
|
There's so many things that she's never tasted |
|
Who'll be there to say what is wrong and what is right |
