Eyelids black but blue behind
Will I ever see her shine?
Touch the hunger in her skin
Touch that soul she's kept within

Will I ever make her mine?
Will I ever see her shine?

Hey little girl, whoever you are
Flying like a shooting star
Who are these men that made you sad?
Who's your uncle? Who's your dad?

Clouds are moving through your past
Will these clouds forever last?

Up like fire, down in rain
Run away, come back again
Shadows flicker in the past
On my skin you make them last

This little girl would learn so fast
This little girl could never ask
