There will be a girl

There will be a girl.

She will be the one,

We’ve been waiting for.

Words will fall out of her mouth

And entrance a whole generation

Her hands will stop battle

And her feet will trample

The face of oppression.

She will save us all.

Oh, but she is not here

She has been taken.

So we will wait in unison

Silently cursing the day we let them have her.
