the vanished - latch key princess lyrics

daddy was never there
with a crooked smile never really cared, oh well
she's such a beautiful girl
afraid to speak so she read instead
thinking do i look like the magazine said i should?
am i a beautiful girl?

so where is my angel
has she climbed out the window

[chorus]
is she waving or drowning
with a broken heart tied around her neck
is she waving or drowning
with a broken heart she's drifting away
there's a star in the sky in the city
she sleeps tonight, she'll be alright, oh yeah
she's such a beautiful girl
she's such a beautiful girl

hair dyed black with a tear in her eye
as she took off with that guy who said
she's such a beautiful girl
now all she wants is to go home
left with nothing but a bloody nose, oh well
she was a beautiful girl

[chorus]

she's a latch key princess, she's a latch key princess
a latch key princess, she's a latch key princess

[chorus]

there's a star in the sky in the city
she sleeps tonight, she'll be alright, oh yeah
she's such a beautiful girl
she's such a beautiful girl

and now she's drifting away
she's such a beautiful girl
and now she's drifting away
she's such a beautiful girl
