The Naked Truth - Child

She was a sweet little girl
Who lives in a world of her own
She didn't care what she do
She'd make every town be her home
She said "come along with me and I'll lead you to another world"
And when I looked into her eyes
I knew I just couldn't resist
With this innocent distraction, my whole life seemed nothing at all

Hey little girl will they always leave you so lonely
Hey little girls will they ever show you the way
Hey little girl let them lead you away to this other world
But there's something you gotta know before they take you away

Now this crazy little girl took the world with all she could find
Leaving no stone unturned, but that's where the innocence died
She cried "help me find the life that I had not so long ago"
But I was choking back the tears because I know there was no hope at all
There was nothing I could do to help me erase what I feel

Hey little girl now they've gone and left you so lonely
Hey little girl you know they never showed you the way
Hey little girl it's too late to return from this other world
But perhaps somebody will learn now you're fading away

And I said:
Hey little girl will they always leave you so lonely
Hey little girls will they ever show you the way
Hey little girl let them lead you away to this other world
But there's something you gotta know before they take you away
And I said:
Hey little girl now they've gone and left you so lonely
Hey little girl you know they never did show you the way
Hey little girl it's too late to return from this other world
But perhaps somebody will learn now you're fading away

It's just you're only a child

See signs of lonely winters taking your soul away
It's a game that we play
