She Walks By
(V1)
There was a girl who "makes believe"
Said she'd be around but then she'd leave
Hanging out, makin' the scene
Don't buy her lies knowing where she's been
Big trouble for a little girl
The boys want to step into her world
But once they have their turn
Their memory endlessly burns
(Chorus)
She's been to hell
She's been to Queens
She's been on stage
In New Orleans
In every bar
With every guy
You still want her
When she walks by
(V2)
You met her years ago, it was late at night
Out in the street with tears in her eyes
Pulled at your heart; you couldn't walk by
You stopped to talk and she said good-bye
(V3)
Beautiful girl beyond a doubt
A life so rough she wanted out
Took all she had and headed south
If you'd only known what she was about
(Chorus)
She's been to hell
She's been to Queens
She's been on stage
In New Orleans
In every bar
With every guy
You still want her
When she walks by
(V4)
She's back in town without regret
Walking t'wards you now, you start to sweat
Will she remember; did she forget
Will she walk by like you never met
You hear her name
And your head spins
You should have told her
Way back then
(Way back then)
(Spoken Word)
Do you remember that night
And all the lies
You could have been mine
You should have been mine
But she walked by
(V1)
There was a girl who "makes believe"
Said she'd be around but then she'd leave
Hanging out, makin' the scene
Don't buy her lies knowing where she's been
Big trouble for a little girl
The boys want to step into her world
But once they have their turn
Their memory endlessly burns
