| [00:14.25] |
Young girl standing on the corner |
| [00:20.36] |
The streetlight beating down like highlights in her hair |
| [00:27.15] |
Her hand outstretched begging for a quarter |
| [00:32.88] |
Or a cigarette, she don't really care |
| [00:40.13][02:06.07] |
She's just thinking about getting through the night |
| [00:47.07][02:12.49] |
Mama's voice ringing in her head saying "Baby you sleep tight" |
| [00:53.64][02:18.96] |
On the streets of this city strange |
| [00:56.44][02:22.50] |
She don't know which way to turn |
| [00:59.89][02:25.53] |
Frustrated, cold and scared, but baby never learns |
| [01:06.94][02:32.16] |
She's making promises to get the things she needs |
| [01:13.72][02:38.78] |
But you only give away what you don't intend to keep |
| [01:20.23][02:45.38] |
You never sell your soul to the demons that you meet |
| [01:26.85][02:51.75] |
Play the game you had to learn on the cold and lonely streets |
| [01:39.97] |
Young girl standing at the station |
| [01:46.45] |
She dries her eyes and boards a bus to who knows where |
| [01:53.26] |
With no direction and no destination |
| [01:59.63] |
She fools herself to think that she'll know it when she gets there |
| [03:04.54] |
Young girl standing on a corner |
| [03:11.18] |
And the streetlight beating down casts shadows on her face |
| [03:19.27] |
Her hand outstretched, begging for a quarter |
| [03:24.08] |
Or a cigarette, in a brand new place |
