Looking at my photographs when we were kids at school
We were both the teacher's pets, we suffered ridicule
You played violin, sang alto in the choir
Nothing much to look at, girl, that boys would desire
Did you become a working girl and lose your self-esteem?
Did you become a solo mum by the time you were eighteen?
I wonder where you are today
And who you're keeping company?
Did your destiny take you far away?
I wonder who you are tonight
And what you have become?
Who is sleeping by your side when morning comes?
When morning comes
Looking at my photographs when I first taught school
You looked so self-confident, I felt like a fool
Your infectious, sexy smile was gonna get you through
You were a child of promise, we held high hopes for you
Did you become a sporting star and build your muscle tone?
Did you become an architect and build your dream home?
I wonder where you are today
And who you're keeping company?
Did your destiny take you far away?
I wonder who you are tonight
And what you have become?
Who is sleeping by your side when morning comes?
When morning comes
