i first saw her as a child on the movie screen i felt my heart jump out of my chest she was damaged and lean with a character that puts your fortitude to the test beauty by day danger by night ain t it a bitch to see that the only city i could ever really love takes the time to step on people like me like a wind like a flame she plays by the rules of her own game she can t lose you can t win all you can do is your best to stay in i hear an echo through a canyon of concrete reflecting seas of lifeless eyes watching ants toting hope home into their towers stretching up towards the sky somehow she moves me somebody fooled me into thinking she don t mean to be mean and the fact though impractical seems to be that she s somehow got a hold on me like a wind like a flame she plays by the rules of her own game she can t lose you can t win all you can do is your best to stay in like a wind like a flame she plays by the rules of her own game she can t lose you can t win all you can do is your best to stay in leave a light on leave a light on all night long leave a light on leave a light on all night long leave a light on leave a light on all night long
