A Young Girl (Une Enfante) Lyrics by Cher

The Sonny Side of Chér

0

[Verse 1]
She left her neighborhood in which
Everyone was filthy rich
She left her parents' home
And strayed with a vagabond
Who made vows of love she never heard
And she believed his every word
She left no forwarding address
She just took her youth and happiness
And with the boy she vanished in
The secret sweetness of their sin
[Chorus]
A young girl
A young girl of sixteen
Child of springtime still green
Laying there by the road
[Verse 2]
He told her love-demanded space
So they roam place to place
Although she realized she sinned
She threw caution to the wind
As she followed him around
While he slowly dragged her down
So overpowering was the love that he had made
It captured all the young girl's hearts and soul and mind
In another words love drove her blind
[Chorus]
A young girl
A young girl of sixteen
Child of springtime still green
Laying there by the road
[Verse 3]
Too much emotion for a girl
She let her heart become her world
A world that God has never wrought
That brought us under we are taught
Had she'd been wiser and she had known
She could of fed him love alone
She should've know the day would come
When he would quit her just for fun
He needed fresh young meat to carve
And left her heart and mind to starve
[Chorus]
A young girl
A young girl of sixteen
Child of springtime still green
Laying there by the road
