Lyrics
Verse
She`s been up and down that highway.
She`s been searching high and low.
For a little piece of heaven but the goings kind of slow.
It`s not really what she wanted.
But it helps to make ends meet.
Just a simple choice in black and white tween living and the street.
Time and time again she`s gonna pack her bags and run.
As the fabric of her dreams become undone.
Chorus
She`s just a single girl, doing the best she can.
Taking it day by day, aint got no master plan.
You`ll see her in the 5 and dime at Burger King or dancing in some downtown bar.
Just waiting for her moment to arrive someday she`s gonna be a star.
Verse
Well her daddy always told her.
Cos her daddy always knew.
Anything she ever wanted, thats the thing that she should do.
So she left her home behind her.
To follow some big dream.
Got to know in time that all that shines aint really what it seems.
But she`ll stand up tall and take it all while swallowing her pride.
Cos she knows it`s such a long and lonely ride.
Chorus
Bridge
All she ever wanted was to shine her light so everyone would know her name.
But what we want aint always what we get and way to late you find your caught up in the game.
Chorus.
