Amy Studt - She Ran lyrics

Just a girl in a photograph Wearing the dress that I wear now A pretty face in fields of grey It's sad to see that nothing seems to change She's running from the boy in the schoolyard She's running through the field to the open barn They're laughing as the sun dances round her A little life within her takes it place inside her starts to grow She cuts the seams of a favorite frock She sits and listens to the old church clock Oh daddy daddy don't send me away Never been a bad girl I swear that nothing's changed She's running from the face of her father She's running from the silence in a crowded room She's running from the ring that he gave her The leaded sound of promises The feeling that's inside her starts to grow A dark day becomes a cold, cold night A fading light to bear a newborn life Two voices fade into one She closed her eyes with the rising sun She's running to the arms of an angel She's running from the only place she's ever known She's running with her heart left behind her They knew when they found her that they just couldn't hurt her anymore She's running from the face of her father She's running from the silence in a crowded room She's running from the ring that he gave her They knew when they found her that they just couldn't hurt her anymore Just a girl in a photograph Wearing the dress that I wear now A pretty face in fields of grey It's sad to see that nothing seems to change
