Lirieke: Kim Wilde. Child Come Away.
Child come away - it's the girl with the deputy walking by.
Just go and play
no I won't give you reasons
so don't ask why.
I read the story 'bout a week ago
They found her on the beach that night.
They said the light had gone out of her eyes
And no-one thinks she'll ever be right. She was so full of her life
Happy with the people she knew
but now no-one can tell.
Child come away - it's the girl with the deputy walking by. . ..
'cos all they found were some marks in the sand
A message saying "she is mine".
Nobody touched her as she got in the car
And nobody dares to anytime. She was so full of her life
The girl that ev'rybody once knew
but now no-one can tell.
Child come away - it's the girl with the deputy walking by. . . .
And when they read her story out to the judge
I heard he had to turn away
it's all over town.
I saw her face in the back of the car as they were speeding out of this town
She's got a mark on the side of her face that no one's ever seen around.
And what she is or what she's become I guess the town will never know.
