lyrics

She is just a young girl,
Finding her way,
She is just a young girl,
Finding her way,
In a world full of darkness,
where grownups play,
Where the shadows cast around her
Are her only friendly face,
She holds them dear
And she keeps them close,
In the arms of her keeper lies her ghost.

She is just a young girl,
Finding her way,
She is just a young girl,
Finding her way,
In a world full of strangers,
Where noone knows her name,
Where nothing ever changes,
But nothing stays the same,
She shows no fear,
she knows him well,
In the arms of her keeper lies her ghost.

Close the door,
Prepare your guise,
Sheild her face,
From her reflection in your eyes,
Let your strong hands,
Loosen from her waist,
She is just a young girl, finding her way.

She is just a young girl,
Finding her way,
She is just a young girl,
Finding her way,
In a world full of darkness,
Where grownups play,
Where the shadows cast around her
Are her only friendly face,
She holds them dear
And she keeps them close,
In the arms of her keeper lies her ghost.
She holds them dear and she keeps them close,
In the arms of her keeper lies her ghost.
