Lyrics
Looking thinking you are wonderful
Watching thinking you are beautiful
Born into a world that's
Violent at times
With cold cruel minds
That can steal you
With a lie
Sometimes I feel so wary
Sometimes I feel so angry
How was I to recognise
Behind smiling eyes
The evil in his mind
Little Girl Lovely Girl
Warm and safe in your soft world
Little girl lovely girl
What dreams beneath the curls
Leave the past behind ?
Does it ever leave your mind ?
It's not my aim to scare you
Wherever life might lead you
We just need to talk it through
No matter what you do
Some might want to hurt you
You can't trust in believing
You cant trust without reason
Some live in a private hell
It's so hard to tell
And know their thoughts inside
Little Girl Lovely Girl
Warm and safe in your soft world
Little girl lovely girl
What dreams beneath the curls
Leave the past behind
Does it ever leave your mind
Instrumental
It's not my aim to scare you
Wherever life might lead you
We just need to talk it through
No matter what you do
Some might want to hurt you
Little Girl Lovely Girl
Warm and safe in your soft world
Little girl lovely girl
What dreams beneath the curls
Leave the past behind ?
Does it ever leave your mind ?
