Purple Lyrics by Mike Garrigan

The Lessons of Autumn

0

She's just a girl
And he don't know what to do
He's been running around the inside
And it just ain't getting through
Just a girl
He don't know what to say
He's got cottonmouth tong-tied
And it's useless anyway
Hey man
You know it really ain't that bad
I really think you could have been
The best time that she had
Man she's gone
But she's just a girl
Yeah she's gone
And he said she was his world
She paints her face so well
She ain't much for pictures
He loves her she can't tell
She's his world
And he don't know what to sing
Cause every time she thinks of him
It only starts to bringhim down
You know it really ain't that bad
I really think you could have been
The best time that she had
Man she's gone
But she's just a girl
Yeah she's gone
His skies are black tonight
Inside a purple shaded dark redress
He'd give his life to end this mess
Man, open up your arms to the sky
And let her go
Might start to laugh again
Starting to smile again
Cause she don't know what to do
As he wraps his arms around her
Deep inside it's dark inside
And she knows she's being used
She's confused
And she's crying to her mommy
Cause she's just done all the things
Her mommy told her not to do
It's so wrong
But hell justice ain't half bad
I really think you should have been
The best time that she had
Man she's gone
But she's just a girl
Yeah, she's gone
Just a girl
And maybe someday
Someday
She'll grow up too
