作词 : Caroline White 作曲 : Caroline White [Verse One] …..One more day in the English quarter, …..And which way for all our daughters? …..There’s too much rain and too much water, You’ll see her if you dare. Destinations, dreams to cling to, Aspirations, schemes to bring to, But no one shared the key to win through, Or saw her gift and flair, ….And so she worked her hardest……… to prove her fervour, ….And claim a stake in what this life can procure, ….But never seen as good enough, Her path stepped away from the action, She was only ‘doing girl’. [Chorus] And all her life she’s been waiting to be heard, to be heard, A lonely voice complaining to this world, to this world, …..Give her a taste of what she’s hoping for, For her dreams are not dreams if they’re left on the sho……ore [Verse Two] Everyone has a tale to render, Never judge by your own agenda, The girl with just her love to tender, To escape her desperate home. And so began, Her best career plan, to have a child and a stake in what this life can impart, But seen as wild and worthless, She hides behind the curtains, Where’s aspiration when she’s fighting in the dark? [Verse Three] …..The weary wife alone by the fender, …. With only her life to tender, ….. Home maker and mender, ….For the sake of all but her. …..Never listened to, forgotten, She prays for the children, Who’ve flown but her loving heart denies, ….She needs to shout so they can see her, And light a fire to free her, From the anguish of society’s despise. One more day in the English quarter, And which way for all our daughters? There’s too much rain and too much water, You’ll see them if you dare……..[Verse One] …..One more day in the English quarter, …..And which way for all our daughters? …..There’s too much rain and too much water, You’ll see her if you dare.
