Lyrics
Darling I know we talked about it one too many times.
How there was something missing in our lives.
A little life.
So we tried. It was more than just a twinkle in your eye.
But some things you just don’t get to decide.
At least we tried.
The first casualty of life is the plan.
When I look back I’m not even sure that,
We were thinking.
Cause somewhere,
She’s probably dancing with her blonde hair.
Falling like ribbons on her shoulders,
Just like we always saw.
Bright eyes,
Spinning in circles in the sunlight.
Darling, we tried but now it’s over.
We had it all and then we lost,
The girl that never was.
If could say a million words to take away the pain.
What kills me is you trying to take the blame.
You’re not to blame.
I’ll never say I told you so,
But sad I’ve thought the words.
Tried drowning you in happiness.
I only make it worse.
We never should have picked a name,
Cause now she has a face.
And now no matter what we do,
No one’ll take her place.
Cause somewhere,
She’s probably dancing with her blonde hair.
Falling like ribbons on her shoulders,
Just like we always saw.
Bright eyes,
Spinning in circles in the sunlight.
Darling, we tried but now it’s over.
We had it all and then we lost,
The girl that never was.
I know we’ll never know you.
I know we’ll never hold you
I never got to show you my love.
Cause somewhere,
She’s probably dancing with her blonde hair.
Falling like ribbons on her shoulders,
Just like we always saw.
Bright eyes,
Spinning in circles in the sunlight.
Darling, we tried but now it’s over.
We had it all and then we lost,
The girl that never was.

    I am so torn up by this song. You lace emotions like a ribbon throughout the words and around my heart. I can feel the honesty of your happiness, your pain and even your playfulness in the lyrics of your songs. It’s a window into who you really are inside. You have the ability to take me with you, as you sing I am swept up in a vortex of emotion. That is a rare and precious gift that you share with the world. I am grateful to be privileged to hear and play your music over and over again. Like so many of your fans, I would love to meet you and just talk, about anything at all. I hope for you and your loved ones to have peace, love and light. Thank you is not enough. ❤ Brenda, USA
