[Verse 1] If she ever comes back to me Back home from the factory He's making her work now If she ever comes back to me Back home from the factory He's making her work now [Chorus] It can never be alright She was the only light [Verse 2] But these kids, they grow up Make choices, and so what I've lost my daughter To these callous wolves [Chorus] It can never be alright She was the only light [Verse 3]
It can never be the same again I'm just waiting for this day to end I'm saying it's too bad i let her run so free It can never be the same again I'm just waiting for this day to end I'm saying it's too bad i let her run so free [Interlude] Oh but these kids, they get old And their plans, they turn cold I've lost my daughter To these frigid souls [Chorus] It can never be alright She was the only light
