Girl

Tori Amos - Little Earthquakes

From in the shadow she calls
And in the shadow she finds a way
Finds a way
And in the shadow she crawls
Clutching her faded photograph
My image under her thumb
Yes, with a message from my heart
Yes, with a message from my heart
Shes been everybody elses girl
Maybe one day shell be her own
Everybody elses girl
Maybe one day shell be her own
And in the doorway they stay
And laugh as violins fill with water
Screams from the bluebells
Cant make them go away
Well Im not seventeen
But Ive cuts on my knees
Falling down as the winter
Takes one more cherry tree
Shes been everybody elses girl
Maybe one day shell be her own
Everybody elses girl
Maybe one day shell be her own
Everyone elses girl
Maybe one day shell be her own
Rushin rivers, thread so thin, limitation
Dreams with the flying pigs
Turbin blue and the drugstores too
Safe in their coats and in their dos
Yeah, smother in our hearts a pillow to my dots
One day
One day shell be her own
And in the mist there she rides
And castles are burning in my heart
And as I twist I hold tight
And I ride to work every morning wondering why
' Sit in the chair and be good now'
And become all that they told you
The white coats enter her room
And Im callin my baby, callin my baby, callin my baby
Callin.. .
Everybody elses girl
Mamaybe one day she'll be her own
Everybody else's girl
Maybe one day shell be her own
Everybody elses girl
Maybe one day shell be her own
