|
City lights and the pretty sights beckoned you to roam |
|
Leavin' now and you're knowin' how, you're on your own |
|
Family and reality seem so far away |
|
Feelin' fine and the happy times have left you to stay |
|
Oh shopping bag lady, asleep on the snow |
|
If you had your fortune, you'd trade it for a kind hello |
|
Oh shopping bag lady the winter winds blow |
|
Society has forgotten you, there's nowhere left for you to go |
|
Through the tears, all your better years passin' by so fast |
|
Loneliness is a part of you, and oh how it lasts |
|
No one there, there to really care, the city seems so cold |
|
Yesterday you were just a child, today you're so old |
|
I would love to hold you |
|
Nights when you're alone and the cold and dark is killin' you ever so slowly |
|
I would love to love you |
|
Nights when you're alone, you're alone |
|
I know the days used to be something different for you |
|
I know it's cold and lonely and it's misery |
|
I wanna help you, |
|
I wanna help you, |
|
I wanna help you when you're down |
|
I wanna look around and find a helping hand for you |
|
Oh no it's never too late, oh no it's never too late to try and help you out |
|
I know you're cold and it's misery |
|
I can tell the days used to be something different for you |
