She's All Alone
She is all alone on the dirty streets downtown
It’s starting to get cold as the sun is going down
Will she have to spread her wings to make it through the night?
Or sleep with one eye open and be prepared to fight?
She was once somebody’s little girl; she used to laugh, she used to play
Now she’s lost in this great big world, she just had to get away
Will you help her find her way? Please don’t just look away
Seems like it was so long ago, since she was loved and warm
When she felt like she could trust and felt protected from harm
She hides away each evening to a place inside her mind
Life seems to smile on some, for others it’s unkind
Where do dreams go to die when we finally have to let them go
They leave an empty space inside and can make you feel so alone
Make you feel so alone - she feels she’s all alone
