She came up from the country with a smile for everyone
    Badd9 (135211@7)                       Add9
She left her blue horizon just to find another home
  Badd9 (135211@7)                        Add9
A lonely girl whod traveled many days
  Baad9                       Add9
A lonely heart that could not find the way

Badd9 (135211@7)                       Add9
A misty morning rider, she came wandering through the hills
  Badd9 (135211@7)                       Add9
A wandering soul appearing over rainy window sills
  Badd9 (135211@7)                       Add9
A loser in her heart but in her face
  Badd9 (135211@7)                   Add9
A smile for everyone under Gods grace

Midnight maiden madness, what to search for in this place?
Badd9 (135211@7)                        Add9
Gateway to the city, night sky shadows on her face
  Baad9                        Add9
A lady lost in nowhere but her stare
           Badd9 (135211@7)                  Add9
Leaves the world, her life to start somewhere
