Born in Kansas on an ordinary plain

Ran to New York but ran away from fame

Only seventeen when all your dreams come true

But all you wanted was someone to undress you

And all the stars you kissed could never ease the pain

Still the grace remains and though the face has changed

You’re still the same



And it’s a long long way from where you want to be

And it’s a long long road, but you’re too blind to see



Frame of silence of an innocent divine

Is a dangerous creation when you fall the test of time

And all the photographs of ghosts of long ago

Still they hurt you so, won’t let go

And you still don’t know



And it’s a long long way from where you want to be

And it’s a long long road, but you’re too blind to see



When you look around yourself now, do you recognize the girl

The one, who broke a thousand hearts, terrified the world



And all the stars you kissed could never ease the pain

Still the grace remains and though the face has changed

You’re still the same



And it’s a long long way from where you want to be

And it’s a long long road, but you’re too blind to see



And it’s a long long way from where you want to be

And it’s a long long road, but you’re too blind to see
