Each time her hair gets wet It likes to pirouette Along her silhouette And rest upon her skin And bolts of silver light go spiraling And I just hope I make the time to take it in When she gets tired it takes all she's got to stay awake When she gets wired, well you can't get a word in edgeways When she gets sad she takes it bad but she don't complain And when she gets ill she take a pill to ease the pain And when she gets ill she take a pill to ease the pain And when here eyes get lost Then pretty soon her life gets tossed aside And like those silver locks here mind goes spinning wild What kind of god would wish this on his child A heart that breaks and heals a thousand times When she gets tired it takes all she's got to stay awake When she gets wired, well you can't get a word in edgeways When she gets sad she takes it bad, but she don't complain And when she gets ill she take a pill to ease the pain And when she gets ill she take a pill to ease the pain And if she needs a shoulder she can take mine and be stronger still Until the aching's over my girl, she takes a pill When she gets tired it takes all she's got to stay awake When she gets wired, well you can't get a word in edgeways When she gets sad she takes it bad, but she don't complain And when she gets ill she take a pill to ease the pain And when she gets ill she take a pill to ease the pain And when she gets ill she take a pill to ease the pain
