A Memoir To Me
She's got a smile that would light up the world
Skin so dark and lovely
Always had those dirty ole fingernails
Never that outspoken, but when she spoke, oh she said it
Was so neat and artistic
Always writin' and wonderin'
Writin and wonderin'
Never that guilty of anything
Tried to be a perfect little angel
That girl everyone befriended
So shy, so mellow so sweet
Sweeter than peaches on a Sunday afternoon
Always smilin' bout somethin'
She's got a smile that would light up the world
Skin so dark and lovely
