lyrics

I saw you around,
passed in the hall.
I tried to define my gaze
apart from the mob-

I wonder
could you tell?

Even back then
I knew well enough,
but to say it out loud,
there was no one to trust.

Especially back then,
men so crude and unkind.
I can't imagine
how hard, girl, you fought
just to survive.

I regret not getting to know you better.

A friend of a friend,
so it turned out.
when we finally met,
I barely opened my mouth.

Especially back then,
I'll bet you had more than enough
people taking pieces of you
just by chatting you up.

I regret not getting to know you better.

Last I heard,
last I saw,
you had a job at the mall.

Second floor
flower store,
you dressed like you ran the show.

I'd be so happy to know,
that your spirit's not faded.
Tall girls never allowed to make it-
the piece I took I tried to guard it.
