Jewel - Silver Satin Wings - Текст песни

"I don't mean to be bad," said the bubble headed blonde,

   and it was probably true.

   "But what else can you do when looks are all people notice

   and looks are all that they want, too."

   

   And now she's sitting in the bedroom and she's crying

   Now she lies beneath his silver satin

   wings Cause she was never raised to know any better

   because he is the best thing she has ever seen

   

   And Papa said she's too cute for words

   So she never learned how to speak

   And mama said she don't need to read

   just a hot mercedes and a decent man that won't (spring a leak)?

   So now she's sitting in the bedroom and she's crying

   Now she lies beneath his silver satin wings

   Cause she was never raised to know any better

   because he is the best thing she has ever seen

      

   In school all she learned that talk is cheap

   but looks they come for free

   They said "Hey, why try and think girl, if you can smile

   and get anything you need?"

   

   So now she's sitting in the bedroom and she's crying

   Now she lies beneath his silver satin wings

   Cause she was never raised to know any better

   because he is the best thing she has ever seen

   

   She said "Sometimes there's this fear inside

   that cannot sleep at night, though he is sleeping fine

   And I used to like the way he talked

   before I knew promises were just other words for 'goodbye'."

   

   See now she's sitting in the bedroom and she's crying

   As she lies beneath his silver satin wings

   Cause she was never raised to know any better

   because he is the best thing she

   He is the best thing she will ever see.
