New Eyes of the World

When Nicki was just eighteen,
 You had to meet her to see what I mean.
 She had a smile that pulled you right up off the floor.
 Now she lived in a city scene
 Where innocence was left unseen.
 It's a wonder how she made it out at all.
 In the new eyes of the world...
 In the new eyes of the world...
 You are seen as nothing but desire.
 So where would I even think to begin?
 She had a ways to make the boys sin,
 And whether whiskey or wine she'd come out every night.
 No one knew where she would go
 Because she came from a broken home.
 And the boys in the bar, they finally lost their minds.
 In the new eyes of the world...
 In the new eyes of the world...
 You are seen as nothing but desire!
 In the new eyes of the world...
 In the new eyes of the world...
 You are seen as nothing but desire!
 She was just eighteen
 Trying to get on her own two feet
 Before she's pushed down again
 You're never gonna see her good side again.
 And now she's on her way to nowhere street.
 Bringing them down to their knees
 To get what she needs out of this cruel world.
 In the new eyes of the world...
 In the new eyes of the world...
 You are seen as nothing but desire
 In the new eyes of the world...
 In the new eyes of the world...
 You are seen as nothing but desire
