if she is angry
at the world
if you see the tears
in the little girl
(chorus 1)
she is tired
she has unfurled
take her in your arms
can you love that
girl?
if she is kicking
because she was
betrayed
if she is cursing
at the day
(chorus 2)
she is tired
it’s true
this is not her
she just wants you
if she is mad
and her back is bent
raging ice from within
if she is weeping bitterly
because everything she
is, is spent,
then know she is
letting go
by degrees
in her heart,
she’s on
her knees
and everything
has abandoned her
needs
(chorus 1&2)
she is tired
she has unfurled
take her in your arms
can you love that
girl?
she is tired
it’s true
this is not her
she just wants you
(outro)
oh, please take
her then
softly into your arms
love her soft, love
her true
just be someone
to love her
through
