Lyrics
Never-Never Land
I used to watch her there, playing in her room
The way her eyes would dance, and her spirit zoomed
Always high above, where the lost boys ran
Soaring through the clouds, next to Peter Pan
Now she's still flying high, and she won't come down
Cause she can't dull the pain, when she's on the ground
I've tried to coax her back, but she won't take my hand
Says I'm just her mom, and this ain't Never-Never Land
(No, I'm not Peter Pan, and this ain't Never-Never Land)
She was just fifteen, when her dad found out
And the last six years are hard to talk about
We watched helplessly as she lost control
But we still loved the child drugs and drinking stole
* * * * *
She moved out when she quit school
Friends tried to take her in
But she burned every bridge
Today she wanders fool to fool
Now it's her call
How far she's gonna fall
