A quarter to three - as the wind's rattling down at the door She's lying awake Just like so many hours before
And out there a grey day will dawn - and somehow the night's gone by It seems she lost count of the sad days That make up her life.
Hey girl, don't you cry - time is on your side Deep in your heart - love just might take a while Hey girl, don't you know - you're strong and beautiful when you smile
Rain's pouring down - as she's making her way cross the square There's faces she knows - but it seems as if no one would care
And sometimes at night when she's home - and all of her dreams fly by It seems as if nothing will change 'Til the day that she dies
(*)Hey girl, don't you cry - time is on your side Trust in your heart - there's so many ways to try Hey girl, don't you know - you're strong and beautiful When you smile - when you smile
