The Girl On the Corner
Honey, I see you
standing
waiting
day after day
For someone to come
love you
and show you the way
Your frightened
betrayed
cold
confused
With no hope
no one
no clue
Your shivering
and shaking
on a late winters night
I just want to hug you
love you
protect you
and make everything alright
But, honey you see
I've waited for someone to show me the way
no one noticed
asked if im okay
Im frightened
betrayed
I've been hurt and abused
That doesnt mean i give up
even when im misused
Your cold
wet
but please understand
pick yourself up
take someones hand
Life will always chuck you the rocks
Thats why you have to jump up and down in your pink socks
To celebrate every step in time
so you can be successful and not be left behind
