Flower child, she's not the one you're chasing She's the one who's caught in outer space Held down by tinsel thread and chain out of leather To make her go the other way Her mama cries, just a wound on a baby Getting older every step she takes Cause now, she knows it's just a world for her taking And something's drawing her away
And if you start feeling weak, turn yourself around Force the weather to follow Find an empty street and kneel down Let it take your sorrows Tell me how much strength and honesty You ought to be sending my way Til I forgive you simply And keep going away Tell me how much strength and empathy You ought to be sending my way Til I forgive who you wanna be And keep going away
In the valley she's a daughter who's taken To never making a mistake And vowed to save all of her risky behaviour To pouring over on a page She's got a little book - it's safe in her pocket She writes a little every day On how she really wants to cry, learn a lesson And feel a little for a change
And if you start feeling weak, turn yourself around Force the weather to follow Find an empty street and kneel down Let it take your sorrows Tell me how much strength and honesty You ought to be sending my way Til I forgive you simply And keep going away Tell me how much strength and empathy You ought to be sending my way Til I forgive who you wanna be And keep going away
I'm not running away But I can't take it anymore I'm sorry I'm not running away But I can't stay here anymore I'm sorry I'm not running away But I can't stay here anymore I'm sorry I'm not running away But I can't take it anymore
