She walks into the room says what can I do for you today

Started out hard now its just a job gets easier everyday

When she was seventeen she had so many dreams

My how things change

Left her one night after inventing a fight

Another mouth on the way



What did you want...when you began

How do you think...you came to this end

Now you're aching, aching, say this pain is mine

Wanting, waiting...waiting to shine



Steps into the room everything goes black

That's all she said she knew

Every few months somebody gets rough really nothing new

She closes her eyes dreams of a time dreams a better way

Now she only wants a life for the one in her life gets her through the day



What did you want...when you began

How do you think...you came to this end

Now you're aching, aching, say this pain is mine

Wanting, waiting...waiting to shine



What do you see...becoming to clear

Close your eyes...it will all disappear

Now your aching, aching it's all in your mind

Wanting, waiting, waiting to shine

Know that your hoping hoping you'll find, only wanting you to shine



When she was seventeen she had such dreams

My how things change
