She walked in with sadness in her eyes |
|
I could tell she'd been sleeping with the stars |
|
Well, hello, I'm dawn, yes, I've seen you around |
|
I just live down from here |
|
She has a dad she doesn't know |
|
Who sends her letters with no return address |
|
I don't know his name, he don't know my face |
|
I am better off this way |
|
On the weekends, I drive her into town |
|
In a car that I borrowed from my mom |
|
She makes hotel beds where the sidewalks end |
|
And I wait for her to come home, please come home |
|
The one day, she finally stops coming around |
|
My best friend said she probably moved out of town |
|
Not a letter was sent, not a phone call was made |
|
And I hope she comes back here someday |
