She remembers
She remembers long ago
A time when the buffalo roamed
When the children weren't hurting and the women weren't crying
She remembers long ago
A time when the men would hunt
In the snow
How did she get here you ask yourself?
Standing on the corner with her hand held out
A million people, pass her by
They won't look her in the eye
She's another face that has no place
A reminder of our failure as the human race
Weed out the weak and empower the strong
That is where we all go wrong
Now she cries a highway of tears
Can't take back
All those years
No where to turn
No place to call home
Everything is taken and gone
Now she's spends her nights alone
Cold and lost chilled to the bone
She stands with her hand held out
All that's left is fear and doubt
Accepts what she's been dealt
Vanish away no one to help
Now she cries a highway of tears
Can't take back
All those years
She remembers long ago
A time when the buffalo roamed
When the children weren't hurting
And the women weren't crying
She remembers long ago
A time when the men would hunt
In the snow
Now she cries a highway of tears
Can't take back
All those years
