Things Just Happened

The Lightning Seeds

These days, alone with her gin 
The state she gets in 
When did the thinking begin? 
She rolls her eyes in that dreamy way 
Says “I’m ok 
But why should my life feel this way?” 
Oh that girl 
She’s just a girl 
In a hard luck world 

Where did she come from? 
What will she be? 
If her face lights up in the night with a smile 
Is there someone to see? 
As she opens her eyes I realize 
every day is a dream, 
It’s hard to be who you wanted to be 
Oh that girl 
She’s just a girl 
In a hard luck world 

I know she finds it hard 
She’s never tried so hard before 
She finds it hard 
It breaks your heart 
Oh girl 
She’s just a girl 
In a hard luck world 
Oh girl 
In a hard luck world 
Things just happened that way
