In the shelter
In the mornin' as the sun is brightly gleaming
I heard her crying out, "What is it all about?
I just don't know, but I can't go back home"
Lonely princess
All the days out on your own are growing empty
Nothing is going well
If you could only tell them how you feel
But they're too real to understand
Too many trite expressions
Ending in forced rejections long ago
To many innocent faces
In too many far out places somethings wrong
Let me tell you that somethings wrong
It's been that way so long, and it's a shame
On the street car
Too many wild rejections
Endin' in angry questions from her dad
Too many T.V. dinners
Ah, everyone loves a winner, but she was lost
No one knows the trials she had
(Repeat first verse, then)
Hell, I just don't know,
but I can't go back home
