Gypsy

You had the years of a woman but the face of a child
And a picture of pain in your eyes
And a Fire that burned so deep in your soul
Left you scarred and empty inside

But how could they tame you when your heart was so free
Oh, how could they change you
Gypsy

All that your mother left you was a broken home
And all you remember were tears in her eyes
All that your father left you were broken bones
And the bruises you try to hide

But how could they tame you when your heart was so free
Oh, how could they change you
Gypsy

Well I watched as you tore & I watched as you clawed
At the chains of pain tied around you
I cried for the shame you were never really lost
But no-one had ever tried in find you
Oh,I felt you shiver & I watched you wither
And I saw the colour fall from your face
A girl so precious, a girl so dear
Broken so young, was such a damn waste

But how could they tame you when your heart was so free
Oh, how could they change you
Gypsy
