| As white as lily glimmered she
|
| Like a ships fair ghost upon the sea
|
| Shame on the man who passes by
|
| This fallen angel from the sky
|
| If you realized just who you could be
|
| You gotta tear it up, and give it up and rip it up
|
| I’ll show you how life should be
|
| She wipes the tears from her frozen cheek
|
| Getting strong from her broken dreams
|
| Vowed right then she would not cry no more
|
| This goddess rose and dusted down
|
| Cast her shadow on the ground
|
| Took my hand and gently smiled at me
|
| She said let’s live it up, I want to start again
|
| Give it up till I get it done
|
| Pick it up come on show me how life should be
|
| Just in the nick of time
|
| I’m gonna throw you a line
|
| To lift you up to where you once belonged
|
| I was blinded by that Mona Lisa smile
|
| How could I let you go and throw it all away?
|
| What became of this desert rose
|
| She grew up strong and so beautiful
|
| A flower blossoms each and every morn
|
| In the finest robes of eiderdown
|
| My sweet lady I will lay you down
|
| These precious times we love for ever more
|
| She said lets tear it up I want to rip it up and give it up
|
| Tear it down don’t stop till I get enough
|
| Live it up in this life when it’s getting rough
|
| Let’s live it up I want to start again
|
| Tear it up till I get it done
|
| Pick it up come on show me how life could be
|
| Come on throw me a line, throw me a line come on and throw me a line
|
| Show me how life could be |
