Lyrics
she could tell you right nowshe could hold you nearshe could tell you right nowbut she couldn't shake your fearfor this is not your answerstill you gamble the lossshe was the devil's daughterbut now she carries a cross.she suffered wooden idolsshe won't take them up againshe suffered wooden idolsthey're like a promise whispered in the windyou're walkin, down the lonely highwaybut you know how to believejust got to have her hold you that waytil your tear she will receivestill you wander on and on for milescos you just can't shake your beasteven as she gives you her tender smileyour endless searching will never ceaseyou suffer wooden idolsbut take them up againyou suffer wooden idolsthey're like a promise broken in the wind
