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
