You lie over there in a bed with iron rails |
|
Like a frightened child in the cold light, so frail |
|
Things were going so well,just rolling along |
|
Now, just when you think you got it all made, |
|
You think it's all gone |
|
China doll, i've got something for you |
|
A few good words, a hand to help you get through |
|
May not be much, but now it's all that i can do |
|
Lay down your weary head |
|
Do whatever you gotta do |
|
Put on your strong face when they're in the room |
|
Can't show signs of weakness; an unspoken rule |
|
Put on your strong face, act like nothing's wrong |
|
We can be so helpless, helpless and so strong |
|
China doll, i've got something for you |
|
A few good words, a hand to help you get through |
|
May not be much, but now it's all that i can do |
|
To ease your worried mind |
|
Do something to get through |
|
We bend and break, so fragile, it's true |
|
I say everything'll be alright but i don't have a clue |
|
They say faith is a crutch, well whatever works for you |
|
In a world where you never know |
|
I'll be there for you, |
|
I'll be there for you... |
|
China doll, i've got something for you |
|
A few good words, a hand to help you get through |
|
May not be much, but now it's all that i can do |
|
Lay down your weary head |
|
Do whatever you gotta do |
