She tries to clean the dust,
That has accumulated for years.
In spite of broken dreams,
Although her eyes were full of tears.
She tries to concentrate
And not get carried away by despair.
There's not a single day
That she does not regret her past.
And yet she's waiting every night...
UH!
She looks very nice,
But she seems so confused.
She's ready to go home,
Wearing her good shoes.
Waiting for some news,
She's wondering through the streets.
Girl has lost her time,
Girl has lost her mind.
She's looking for someone,
She's tired of defeats.
She can see her plans,
Going down the drain.
There's nothing left to lose,
There's nothing left to say,
She puts her dreams away.
It took a little while,
Until she quite her oldest hopes.
She used to be so sweet,
She wants to run, she wants to elope.
She's looking all around
Well now, she's just all by herself
(she) no longer has the strength
She can no longer cry for help
She's waiting for redemption
Well she still has grace and patience
To be what she used to be
But now it's too late
