Drifting through the night Wondering what went wrong In a strangers arms Shes only 17 A cigarette in her teeth Shes a beauty queen In a world of black and white She dreams the colour red My baby gives her love Under the cover of Such a soft and simple touch No it don't mean nothing Don't mean nothing much Floating in the sky With all the pages of All the books she loves Waiting on the day she don't crash and burn But she never learns Such a picture perfect smile Caving in again In a world of black and white She dreams the colour red My baby gives her love Under the cover of Such a soft and simple touch No it dont mean nothing Dont mean nothing much
