Lyrics
She woke up this morning and fell into the day
Why does she give so much to someone who turns away?
Clutching at scraps of love he leaves, she cannot see
That he's only with her today 'cause there's nowhere else to be
She's so much older now and yet she feels so weak
A fragile child inside trying to find her feet
She's searching endlessly through the lights in his eyes
For a glimmer of hope that one day he will realise
That if he keeps on walking this time he's on his own
If she can't have his heart then she'd rather be alone
She's so much older now and yet she feels so weak
A fragile child inside just trying to find her feet
She's so much older now and yet she feels so weak
A fragile child inside just trying to find her feet
And tell her how is she expected to smile again?
When all she wants is standing before her in this man
