The prettiest girl on the block
Everybody wanted to be her friend
But nobody really cared about her troubled life
They all just wanted to pretend
Pretend that they understood what she felt inside
Pretend they cared after making her cry
And when her castles came crashing down
No one wondered why
Poor lonely angel
She was my dream girl when I was a boy
I looked at her through hopeless eyes
I knew about her father and how they always fought
But there was nothing that I could do to dry the tears she cried
Nothing I could do from where I stood
She was so silent and misunderstood
And i was too helpless, awkward, and shy
To save her even if I could
My lonely angel
Blue was the way that she felt inside
Violet the color of the tears in her yes
Black were her days as they turned the pages of time
Lonely angel, poor lonely angel
