The Word Girl Lyrics

Do what you should do
To long for me to hear
You open up your heart
And watch my name appear
It's a word for you to use
A girl without a cause
A name for what you lose
When it was never yours

The first time baby that I came to you
I'd do things that you wanted me to
The second time I came to you
You found my love for you
The third time I came to you
Oh I knew
The last time I came to you
How my flesh and blood became the word

A name a girl outgrew
The girl is never real
She stands for your abuse
The girl is no ideal
It's a word, a word for what you do
In a world of broken rules
I found a place for you
Along my chain of fools

The first time baby that I came to you
I'd do things that you wanted me to
The second time I came to you
You found my love for you
The third time I came to you
Oh I knew
The last time I came to you
How my flesh and blood became the word
