James Stephens

What the Snake Saw

A little girl and a big ugly man
Went down the road. The girl was crying
And asking to go home, but when she ran
He hit her on the head and sent her flying,
And called her a young imp, and said he'd break
Her neck unless she went with him, and then
He smacked her on the cheek.—I was a snake
At that time crawling through a robber's den,
And diamonds were sticking to my tongue—
(That's the best dodge), but when I saw the way
He beat the little girl I up and flung
A stone at him. My aim was bad that day
Because I hit the girl ... and she did sing!
But he jumped round and cursed like anything.

Always caught with a lighter girl.

Lonely girl,
Knows shes not the only girl.

Pretend she wasn't dieing girl.

Wonders what went wrong girl...

Young Girl

Young girl Abused and broken
Young girl Alone and Frightened
Young girl Worthless and Ugly
Young girl feels so alone
She has no one to hold her
Young girl's father to drunk to even care
The young girl gets beaten everyday
The young girl wanting to runaway
Young girl will not leave her father alone
Like he has done to her
This young girl's teacher has a note
She reads the note aloud to the class
This young girl was beaten to death

No one had the guts to save her
This young girl bruised and dead
This young girl buried in the cold ground
This young girl has no one to visit her grave
No one asked her how she got her bruises
No one even took a second chance
Goodbye young girl fly away into the arms of God
For He loved you and always will
This young girl happy again

Bryan:
She only cried ever other Tuesday night
She is a crying shame, she could had done something right
In this little town everybody knows her name
Now she's flown away the town will never be the same
Oh oh

This is the home
Yeah yeah

She's the crying girl (the crying girl)
Little crying girl (the crying girl)
Bryan:
People in the street, crying cos she lost her life
All the spirits gone, finished up by the night
Ye-yeah
In this state of mind everybody makes mistakes

But it's ignorance that let you have your life to take
Mark/all:
What nobody knows
She was my girl
Yes, I am the one
Who fell in love
Bryan/all:
With the crying girl (with the crying girl)
The !crying girl (the crying girl)
She the crying girl (with the crying girl)
Little crying girl (the crying girl)

Who Will Cry For The Little Girl?

Who will cry for the little girl
the little girl that sleeps
Who will cry for the little girl
the little girl that weeps
Who will cry for the little girl
the little girl that will soon be grown
Who will cry for the little
the little girl who can't make it on her own
Who will cry for the little girl
the little girl who sits and stands
Who will cry for the little girl
the little girl who watches life in her hands
Who will cry for the little girl
the little girl that gives
Who will cry for the little girl
the little girl that lives
Who will cry for the little girl
the little girl that sleeps
Who will cry for the little girl
the little girl inside of me
Who will cry for the little girl
the little girl who used to be ME! !

Marie (unattainable love)

When I wake up in the morning my first thought is of Marie,
She’s the girl I think of all the time, she’s the girl I want for me.
Her smile is so inviting, her eyes of full of glee,
She’s the girl I think of all the time, she’s the girl I want for me.
Because she is so beautiful, I love her tenderly,
She’s the girl I think of all the time, she’s the girl I want for me.
Though she is so far from me, so far across the sea,
She’s the girl I think of all the time, she’s the girl I want for me.
At times I raise my head in prayer, Oh Lord please hear my plea,
She’s the girl I want to be with, she’s the girl I want for me.

My heart’s in Indiana, where the rest of me should be,
With the girl I think of all the time, with the girl I want for me.
And though I’ve never met her, to my heart she has the key,
She’s the girl I think of all the time, she’s the girl I want for me.
And in my dreams she whispers that she’ll never set me free,
But she’s the girl I think of all the time, she’s the girl I want for me.
It really breaks my heart in two that my dream may never be,
With the girl I think of all the time, with the girl I want for me.
And when I close my eyes at night, my last thought is of Marie,
Of the girl I think of all the time, of the girl I want for me

Who Would Cry...?

Who would cry for the little girl,
When she tries to fall asleep?

Who would cry for the little girl,
When she always weeps?

Who would cry for the little girl,
When she doesn’t know if she is in need?

Who would cry for the little girl,
When her heart intends to bleed?

Who would cry for the little girl,
When she felt like she is dying?

Who would cry for the little girl,
Who can’t stop herself from crying?

Who would cry for the little girl,
Who knew well guilt and shame?

Who would cry for the little girl,
Who tries and tries and tries again?

Who would cry for the little girl,
Who does know what is in her to be?

Who would cry for the little girl,
Who would cry for me? ? ?

I Still Have That Other Girl

I have to say that we should finish it now
Before we weaken cause we already know this is wrong
I could give in, sometimes I think that I will
Despite the temptation I try to be very strong
In my reluctance seems a surprise
Its not cause I dont want you
But I just
Know I must... hesitate
Because I still have that other girl
In my head
I still have that other girl in my head
There may be ugly rumors that
I have been lying
There may be angry tears, but
Theyre never worth the crying
That is why
Sometimes i... hesitate
Because I still have that other girl
In my head
I still have that other girl in my head
I still have that other girl in my head

Who Am I

I am an independent and unbreakable girl.
I am a dreamer.
I am a girl with hope.
I am a girl who never gives up.
I am a girl who never stops trying.
I am a girl who believes in me not in peer pressure.
I am a girl who never stop thinking of how the future going to be,
And of how the past was.
I am an intelligent girl.
I am a believer.
I am an incredible girl.
I am a girl who knows what life means and how it can be sometimes.
I am a girl who proud to be herself.
I am a girl who knows where she came from, where she is and where she's going.
I am a pleasant girl that always happy with what I got.
I am a girl who never tries to be someone I'm not.
I am a patient girl.
I am a girl who's looking forward to survive life.
I am me, wheter I'm pretty or ugly and will always be me.
I am an independent girl and unbreakable, and there is no reason for me to be forgettable of my personalities.

Girl...

Gorgeous girl, who is it to blame
Anonymous girl, who knows her name
Saddened girl, who makes her cry
Blind girl, who can't love anymore
Lonely girl, who wants to touch her
Speechless girl, who kissed her
Gossip girl, who talks about her
Baby girl, who gave birth to her
Pretty girl, who broke your heart
Promiscious girl, who's promise got broken
Girlie girl, why you're wearing pants
Ugly girl, who can change her
Party girl, who will drink tonight
I don't even want to be an idiot pretty girl....

Stole your life

He destroyed your confidence, girl,
He’s the cause of your pain, girl
You got to be stronger than that, girl
Innocent girl you once were.

He stole your innocence, girl,
He took your love, girl
He buried it with others, girl,
Loving girl you once were.

He tore apart your faith, girl.
He turned everyone against you, girl.
He made your parents not trust you, girl.
Worthy girl you once were.

He took your life, girl.
Gave it a new name, girl,
He drew your blood, girl,
Living girl you once were.

Little girl don't you cry, everything will be ok
Little girl please just listen to what i have got to say
Little girl make a wish, sit back, watch the stars and pray
Little girl some one will soon come along to help you guide your way

Little girl just relax and go and play
Little girl someone will be there to brighten up your day

Little girl im sorry to say but it was not true
Little girl dont you look for love, let it come and find you

Little girl please stop sobbing, because you made a mistake
Little girl just remember its an easy thing to make
Little girl you got to beleive that is true

Little girl if you dont give it a shot you will never know.

I have a girl, a good one
a girl who looks after me
a girl with a winning smile
a girl who makes me laugh
a girl who is beautiful
a girl who is kind and strong
I have a girl who ticks boxes
a girl who is something special
a girl who is loving
a girl who has great patience
a girl I'm lucky to know
a girl you'd dream about
I have a girl I'd fight for
a girl who makes me think
a girl who feeds me

I have a girl, a good one

What A Guy Wants

A guy wants the type of girl
That doesn't mind staying home
A guy wants a girl
He can call his own

He doesn't want a girl
Who will cheat
He doesn't want a girl
Who is cheap

He wants a girl
Who will be his best friend
He wants a girl
Who will love him to the very end

He wants a girl
Who he can depend on
He wants a girl
Who will tell him when he's wrong

A guy wants a girl
Who will never lie
Even if it means
One ends up crying

What a guy wants in a girl
Is passion and trust
But most of all
A guy wants to love and not to lust

(Say) You're My Girl

Hello, may I have this dance with you?
How have you been, girl?
Hold me, and then girl
just let me look at you.
Tell me, now, is it true?
Oh, did you break up?
No chance to make up.
I hate to take up all your time,
but tell me.
Oh, no it won't be repeated.
You mean to tell me he cheated?
Oh, what a fool he's been
Though he is, my best friend
I hate it this way,
But I've waited for this day.
I've always wanted
You to be my girl.
Be my girl, you're my girl.
I still don't believe it
he played around on you.
When all the time he knew
I loved you too
With your big eyes,full lips,
High cheek bones,
And ev'rything about you, girl.
Personality girl,
Gimme a chance, come on,
Let's dance,some
Dance the night awa--y;
You're my girl.you're my girl, you're my girl.
Baby doll, baby, baby, hold me tight.
Be mine tonight, say it's alright.
And I will never, ever let you go, oh...
Be my girl, be my girl,
you're my girl.you're mine,
you're my girl.

My Girl

(rod stewart / chen, savigar, cregan, grainger, appice)
Miss you babe
Miss you babe
Shes everywhere I go
Shes everything I know
And now I think shes finally
Touched my soul
Shes heaven here on earth
Much more than I deserve
And I dont wanna ever let her go
Im getting used to all her ways
Everything she says
Her smiles, her frowns
Her ups and all her downs
Shes every move that I make
Shes every breath I take
Shes got a hold on me
That I dont wanna break
I mean my girl bring her home to me
My girl cant wait for you to see
My girl means everything to me
My girl my girl
My friends keep coming round
Saying come out on the town
Whats wrong, you aint the guy
We used to know
And I tell them I say
Without her by my side
Im only half alive
I love her so bad
And I dont care if it shows
I mean my girl
Bring her home to me
My girl, means everything to me
My girl, cant wait for you to see
My girl, my girl, my girl
At last my heart has found a home
This time I know where I belong
I mean my girl
Bring her home to me
My girl, cant wait for you to see
My girl, means everything to me
My girl, I just wanna see
My girl, my girl, my girl,my girl

SORRY LITTLE GIRL THAT HE WENT AWAY

SORRY LITTLE GIRL YOU CARRY SO MUCH PAIN

SORRY LITTLE GIRL IT DIDN'T WORK OUT YOUR WAY

SORRY LITTLE GIRL YOU WILL SEE HIM SOMEDAY

SORRY LITTLE GIRL FOR YOUR TEARS

A girl who will look After me,
