The Jam - Liza Radley lyrics
[The Jam - Liza Radley lyrics]
Liza Radley, see the girl with long hair
See her creeping 'cross summer
Lawns at midnight
And all the people in the town where we live
Say she's not quite right
She don't fit in with a small town
They just can't understand why
She doesn't say much but in a darkened room
It's for their lives only she cries
Liza Radley, see her jump through loneliness
Liza Radley, take me when you go
And as the people pass by
Their heads in the air
Haunting with their noise
She recalls a lonely sigh
But no matter what they say, in her mind
She knows their dream of life
They won't ever find
And all the people in the town where we live
Say she's not quite right
She don't fit in with a small town
They just can't understand why
She doesn't say much but in a darkened room
It's for their lives only she cries
Liza Radley, I pledge myself to you alone
She'd kiss my face and say
"Love means nothing at all"
She'd kiss my face and say
"Life means nothing at all"
See her creeping 'cross summer
Lawns at midnight
And all the people in the town where we live
Say she's not quite right
She don't fit in with a small town
They just can't understand why
She doesn't say much but in a darkened room
It's for their lives only she cries
Liza Radley, see her jump through loneliness
Liza Radley, take me when you go
And as the people pass by
Their heads in the air
Haunting with their noise
She recalls a lonely sigh
But no matter what they say, in her mind
She knows their dream of life
They won't ever find
And all the people in the town where we live
Say she's not quite right
She don't fit in with a small town
They just can't understand why
She doesn't say much but in a darkened room
It's for their lives only she cries
Liza Radley, I pledge myself to you alone
She'd kiss my face and say
"Love means nothing at all"
She'd kiss my face and say
"Life means nothing at all"
