Lyrics Wire Train - When She Was A Girl

Do you remember the working girl
She was a
Heroin for me
Kept herself in a violof water
Evidentially
She watched the boardwalk
As the children came to play
She wished for the years
That she had rent away

Outwardly
Yes you knew
Her
When she was a girl
And now she is no more

Do you remember her flashing smile
And the teeth she had behind
You remember her memories
But not her mind
The fish market wines
Always howl their cruel response
They look for victims they can hang it on

Outwardly
Yes you knew
Her
When she was a girl
But now she is no more

I`ve seen the dream or two
And I`ve watched the cars drive by the motorway
You can make both pride and predjudice
Your friend again
You can make a king of anyone

Outwardly
Yes you knew
Her
When she was a girl
But now she is no more

(Between Two Words 1985)
