John Trudell - What He's Done lyrics

First time she heard it hurt the most Each time she thinks it hurts the worst Whatever happened To cherish honour and protect Her dream world Before her dream was wrecked First time she heard it hurt the most Each time she thinks it hurts the worst When he told her what he'd done Running around with some other ones She couldn't believe this turn of luck Devastation as though she'd been struck thunderbolt Lightning strike in her skies Little girl tears in this woman's eyes She tried findings All those words of expression How to explain These feelings beyond depression A true man a true mans love Is it too much to ask Her reach for peace on Earth As shattered gla** Trust betrayed While she saw their love special Didn't he know what he'd done Pulling trigger to this gun Like a shot through her heart The pain leaves her stunned Twisting hard she questioned Had she done something wrong Is it really all her fault She always tried and tried Girl and woman know realities Of commitments she made To this man to this love to this bond To their song When he told her what he'd done Running around with some other ones She couldn't believe this turn of luck Devastation as though she'd been struck thunderbolt Lightning strike in her skies Lightning girl tears in this woman's eyes Strange news anger sedates the pain Then pain sedates the anger Real news a dream in pieces Just another empty hole Picking up pieces Has an affect on the soul Each piece Places its own wright on the mind Each missing piece An ocean leaving shore behind Something chilling In the world she wants to know Something to what she didn't want To already learn Now she knows You can't turn back the clock Absorb or deflect Not to turn into a prison or a lock Times of caution She could become a jailer or a key Check the picture clearly There's always something to see Life goes on no matter No matter what we do what we do Have to get past these rough waters She's going through It's a long long river And an even longer swim Reality is in how we swim Not about how we win First time she heard it hurt the most When he told her what he'd done Each time she thinks it hurts the worst Running around with some other ones What happened to Cherish honor and protect She couldn't believe this turn of luck Her dream world Before her dream was wrecked Devastation as though she'd been struck First time she heard it hurt the most Each time she thinks it hurts the worst
