Heart Of A Girl

Looking at my window, an angel enrobed
 Appeared and nearly pulled me apart
 A million miles of freedom, a million miles of road
 But I still don't know where to start
 She wrote her number down and she gave it to me
 They had to scrape me off the floor
 In this transient town, waiters and dealers
 Trying to get their feet in the door
 That night I called her and she said
 "Daddy, daddy, daddy, all my life
 I've been trying to find my place in the world"
 I said to her, "Baby, baby, baby, I've got all night
 To listen to the heart of a girl"
 ♪
 I can see the time dripping down the clock
 We've been trying to hear that ancient refrain
 It's the one that knows us when our heads are down
 And reminds us of the place from where we came
 Where we came
 ♪
 "Daddy, daddy, daddy, all my life
 I've been trying to find my place in the world"
 "Baby, baby, baby, I've got all night
 To listen to the heart of a girl"
 What happened here, what is this world?
 It's too far from the heart of a girl
 A ripple in the water from the drop of a pearl
 I'm on the shore waiting for the heart of a girl
 ♪
 Many doors, knock on one
 Standing still, time is raging
 Staring down the mouth of a hundred thousand guns
 And you're still here, you're still here
 I believe that we never have to be alone
 Yes, I believe it's just around the bend
 You can hold it in or you can scream it on a microphone
 There is no end, there is no end
 Come on
 Deep in the night I feel the presence
 Of something that was long ago told to me
 There is a hand guiding the river
 The river to wide open sea
 And deep in my heart, in any game
 On any mountain, oh, I'm not afraid
 Standing on stone, you stand beside me
 And honor the plans that were made
