Latch Key Princess
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Daddy was never there
With a crooked smile never really cared, oh well
She's such a beautiful girl
Afraid to speak so she read instead
Thinking do I look like the magazine said I should?
Am I a beautiful girl?
So where is my angel
Has she climbed out the window
[Chorus]
Is she waving or drowning
With a broken heart tied around her neck
Is she waving or drowning
With a broken heart she's drifting away
There's a star in the sky in the city
She sleeps tonight, she'll be alright, oh yeah
She's such a beautiful girl
She's such a beautiful girl
Hair dyed black with a tear in her eye
As she took off with that guy who said
She's such a beautiful girl
Now all she wants is to go home
Left with nothing but a bloody nose, oh well
She was a beautiful girl
[Chorus]
She's a latch key princess, she's a latch key princess
A latch key princess, she's a latch key princess
[Chorus]
There's a star in the sky in the city
She sleeps tonight, she'll be alright, oh yeah
She's such a beautiful girl
She's such a beautiful girl
And now she's drifting away
She's such a beautiful girl
And now she's drifting away
She's such a beautiful girl
