From in the shadows she calls and in the shadows She finds a way and in the shadow she crawls Clutching her faded photograh , my image under her thumb Yes, with a message for my heart - Yes, with a message for my heart She's been everybody else's girl Maybe one day she'll be her own And in the doorway they stay and laugh As violins fill with water screams from the bluebells Can't make them go away Well, I'm not 17 but I've got cuts on my knees Falling down as the winter takes one more cherry tree Rushin' rivers thread so thin limitation dreams with the flying pigs Turbid blue and the drugstores too safe in their coats Anda in their do's , Yeah, smother in our herats a pillow to my dots One day, maybe one day she'll be her own And in the mist there she rides and castles are burning in my heart And as I twist I hold tight and I ride to work every morning wondering why "Sit in the chair and be good now", and become all that they told you The white coats enter her room and I'm callin' My baby callin' my baby My baby callin'... Everybody else's girl, maybe one day she'll be her own |
