t wasn't long before i first became aware- that there was something on with me and you
and looking back i'm sure i had no idea- of all the things you were going through
porcelain doll like on the outside but she's flawed by her design
if you break me then you buy me as you warned me every time
but always softly- and like a song
a veil of silence drops down around we two- as we sneak around the lowly part of town
and once again i see how i'm not getting through and theres nothing i can do to turn it round
so when the thunder clouds around us find their mark on you once more
i just gather up the pieces as you remember what i'm for
ah la la lie - i hear you sigh
like calamity jane eyre
