time for her to sing and her songs are written every night
 
                    G
behind a bared door sung to a crowd of one until it's done

words slung across the floor

with a song stuck in the mind of every man who sang the
 
G
tune came back night after night just to dance in millies

 Am                                          C                                  
Room She saw a life with no chance for love paid it all in

the rain colors roll a favor and failed to explain Why...
