John Cale - Gatorville & Points East lyrics

In the summer when she laid down beside me Finding shelter on a rainy day She rolled over on the bed, smiling Whenever she ........ herself again Then she ran away She ran, she ran away When I found her on the streets of Boston A marketplace with some market price I should have recognized the things about her She wouldn't stay and she wouldn't fight To those outside her line They didn't look that much different The closer you looked The less you would see them When she got tired she moved to Florida Into Gatorville and Points East Became a victim of the well of ideas They meant nothing to her in the least As the sun came up the sea was deserted A strange and unpleasant sight She's still searching for answers to questions Left behind from her teenage years When she ran away When she ran away Listen to her shouting Hoping for nothing But when her time will come Those outside her line Will be only a memory The closer you looked The less you would see them Those outside her line Will be only a memory The closer you looked The less you would see them
