She was lying in the street tonight
But something was not quite right
Her face was tired and drawn
Her body was weak and her mind was torn
She was lying in the street tonight
Tired of the constant fight
Hanging on to a life that was going down slow
A life that had nowhere to go
And everyone that walked by
Heard a silent cry
As they walked on through the night
And disappeared from sight
Yeh, she was lying in the street tonight
Because something had gone wrong
A long time before
When a life was taken away
Behind a closed door
Yeh
She was lying in the street tonight
Tired of the constant fight Hanging onto a life
That was going down slow Life that had nowhere to go
Lying in the street tonight
Lying in the street tonight Lying in the street tonight
