Tall Girl
I saw you around
Passed in the hall
I tried to define my gaze
Apart from the mob
I wonder
Could you tell?
Even back then
I knew well enough
But to say it out loud
There was no one to trust
Especially back then
Men so crude and unkind
I can't imagine
How hard, girl, you fought
Just to survive
I regret not getting to know you better
A friend of a friend
So it turned out
When we finally met
I barely opened my mouth
Especially back then
I'll bet you had more than enough
People taking pieces of you
Just by chatting you up
I regret not getting to know you better
Last I heard
Last I saw
You had a job at the mall
Second floor
Flower store
You dressed like you ran the show
I'd be so happy to know
That your spirit's not faded
Tall girls never allowed to make it
The piece I took I tried to guard it
