lyrics

She brushes her hair as she walks down the stairs,
Undressing herself in his eyes
She knows she can see through the lies
To the liar within

And softly she shakes as she puts on her makeup
You know that some folks go for elegance
But somehow her eyes show the evidence
Of what's about to begin

She's (she's an empty shell,)
The girl ( a wishing well)
Of his dreams (where coins never land)
(Oh)
She's (She's good as gold)
Exactly (but hard and cold)
What she seems (to this beggar's hand)
A is A and he won't have it any other way

So softly she weeps as the sour light comes creeping
Through curtains that don't reach the windowsill
By this time the two of them know the drill
To their mutual chagrin

Her endless depression won't make an impression
She never did care too much anyway
But something inside her could never say
Goodbye to her friend
And there's no denying


She's (she's an empty shell,)
The girl ( a wishing well)
Of his dreams (where coins never land)
(Oh)
She's (She's good as gold)
Exactly (but hard and cold)
What she seems (to this beggar's hand)
And he won't have her any other way
