Girl of Sand: Woman of Strength

little girl keeps getting lost sliding off her rainbow trying to untie her shoes and she's counting up the cost of the company she's keeping saving up those violet tattoos she thinks love is like a sin knocks you out as you fall in and every kick is gonna leave a bruise young girls and wishes, tight spots and dirty dishes, deadlines and waistline, schoolgirl crushes and valentines crawling up against the walls no escape from Bedford Falls no 'stage' to board from town at noon you may not think i have a heart kind of scared and not that smart but pass the rope and I'll lasso your moon
