Pretty Little Lady


Pretty Little Lady,

with your roses and your scars,

Pretty Little Lady,

with your eyes as bright as stars,

Pretty Little Lady,

with your bruises and your laugh,

Pretty Little Lady,

with the life you can't get back,

 

Pretty Little Lady,

you know your scars won't fade,

Pretty Little Lady,

they will follow you to the grave,

Pretty Little Lady, 

your eyes have lost their spark,

Pretty Little Lady,

your laugh is now a bark,

 

Pretty Little Lady,

your roses have dried up,

Pretty Little Lady,

your life has turned to dust,

Pretty Little Lady,

you no longer see the sun,

Dead Little Lady,

you know your time is done.
