- She's faced the hardest times
you could imagine
And many times her eyes
fought back the tears
-
- And when her youthful world
was about to fall in
Each time her slender shoulders
wore the weight of all her fears
And a sorrow no one hears
- still rings
in midnight silence in her ears
-
- **
- Let her cry
- for she's a lady
Let her dream
- for she's a child
Let the rain fall down upon her
She's a free and gentle flower
growing wild
-
- And if by chance I should hold her
Let me hold her for a time
But if allowed just one possession
I would pick her from the garden
- to be mine
-

- Be careful how you touch her
for she'll awaken
And sleep's the only freedom
that she knows
-
- And when you look into her eyes
you won't believe
the way she's always paying
for a debt she never owed
-
- And a silent wind still blows
- that only she can hear
- and so she goes
-
- ** Repeat 2 times
-
- She's a free and gentle flower
growing wild (×2)
