She was just a young girl From a mother family Had her share of young ideals Her eyes were full of dreams She ran into a dancing man Whose life was full of stale Promised her the bright lights If she lay with him awhile The dancing man took the young girl To streets pavements gold The promises he made too far Started to turn cold She took to feeling to day him fancy clothes and cars That just brought her loneliness Now she can't see the stars *Another young idea has died inside a mind Another young idea is lost Another young idea has died inside a mind Another young idea is lost (In time) Now the young girl doesn't cry no more Doesn't feel or see There's nothing left in life for her There's nothing to believe So in her empty room one night She gently slips to sleep The promisees she leaves behind Her secrets she will keep (Repeat*)
