Saw you on the street the other day
Now I heard you went away
Yeah I heard them say that's typical

You used to hang out at the corner store
Sometimes we talked but nothing more
Said I always thought you were beautiful


You were just one girl
I barely knew your name

Now you're gone
And it gets me just the same
To think of such a life

Being wasted

You try to paper over all the cracks

Pull down your sleeves to cover your tracks
And hide the price of bliss
You had to feel that golden touch

One moment's rush, one grain too much
Did you ever dream it would come to this


You were just one girl
I barely knew your name
Now you're gone

And it gets me just the same
To think of such a life
Of such a life

Being wasted

Saw you on the street the other day

Now I heard you went away

You were just one girl

I barely knew your name
Now you're gone
And it gets me just the same

And it gets me just the same
Yes you were just a girl
You were just a girl

Being wasted
Just wasted
