Lyrics
Getting up doing my 9-5
Why is it suddenly I realize
I'm only 1/2 alive
Whatever happened to the girl with all those crazy, crazy dreams
Could it be she grew up, grew out of the shell of me
How I miss her smile
And I miss her faith
And I miss her trust in the
human race
Driving home, just another city drone
Millions here share the fear, but we're still all alone
Whatever happened to the girl who was so hungry?
Could it be she got fed up, fed up with all the apathy?
How I miss her smile
And I miss her faith
And I miss her trust in the
human race
Gotta find that girl
Gotta find, gotta find, gotta find, gotta find that girl
She didn't see in black or white
She was a true aphrodite
Whatever happened to the girl who was going to change the world did she?
Could it be she grew up, grew out of the shell of me?
How I miss her smile
And I miss her faith
I miss her trust in the human race
Whatever happened to that girl?
Gotta find, gotta find, gotta that girl
Whatever happened to that girl
How I miss her....
I miss her smile
And I miss her faith
I miss her trust in the human race
Whatever happened to that girl?
Whatever happened to that gir?
