RHYTHM SAFARI

LOST GIRL

 

Lost girl, my lost girl

 

She is an island

A drifting continent

Sea shores lie between her words

She says the birds have been stolen 

From between her ruby lips

And hidden in somebody’s shirt

Her memory is marooned in some distant place

Where she once was a girl

 

Memory fight the winter

Memory fight the dark

Memory keep the picture

In my heart

 

CHORUS:

Restless as the sea, that is she

Finding her way home to me

And I really love her, but it’s hard

To keep hanging on to the picture

 

Lost girl, she’s my lost girl

 

She has secret meetings in the night

With lost pieces of her life

But they never ever hear her

And they wait for the day as silently as the sun rises

They’ll come together & she’ll remember me

 

Memory fight the winter

Memory fight the dark

Memory keep the picture

In my heart

 

CHORUS

Restless as the sea, that is she

Finding her way home to me

And I really love her, but it’s hard

To keep hanging on to the picture

Images of splendor, so full of life

A tenderness lost in the frame of time

In the frame of time

 

I can see the picture, and can see it now

I can feel the picture in my heart

Will she remember, will she know
