That girl
That girl
That girl, denied
All she wanted was a mom who cared
A hug a kiss but not unaware
That girl she tried
All she wanted was a friend
One who’d be there til the end
That girl she sighed
All she asked was him for life
Striving to be a good wife
That girl she cried
Not knowing death had a plan
Numb & cold without her man
All she wanted was a knife
That girl she died...
