There goes that little girl again Her years have passed, but all in vain The birds have fallen from the trees And it is told in these old memories
Birds on the wing at the end of the day The trees of green and brown you see Have suddenly turned grey
Don't be too sad when you're waiting for death The message on the garden wall says Mickey Mouse is bad
Ooh, Need, I need, I need, I need her The broken arrows in the door, there's lots of Indians Ooh, Need, I need, I need, I need her The grass has grown above her hair The pretty patterned teddy bear Aah, aah aah yeah yeah
Her baby cries in the heat of the night Footsteps up the stairs her mother's there to hold her tight
Happy young child and his dog running wild Spring is in the air and they've been running for a mile
Remember when that girl was 5 years old Now she's grown older with the lie she told
Why did this happen, where did I do wrong? I know that now I'm home I'm not too young and then I'm gone
Ooh, Need, I need, I need, I need her The broken arrows in the door; there's lots of Indians Ooh, Need, I need, I need, I need her The grass has grown above her hair The pretty patterned teddy bear Aah, aah aah yeah yeah
Birds on the wing at the end of the day The trees of green and brown you see ?Have suddenly turned grey
