(David Bromberg)

One year later I saw her,
Wearing her face in a strange disguise
She carried the smile that they taught her
But she gives it away at the edge of her eyes.

Didn't I see the sun shine through the rain before?
But she's crying and she knows it
She's crying and she shows it on the outside now.

Whatever happened to the girl that was?
Did she go inside, because it's cold out here?

Sooner or later she told him
I'm in love again
Truly this time
There's nothing at home left to hold me.

The city's just great and the world treats me fine.
Didn't she think that I'd heard that old refrain before?
She's lying and she knows it
She's lying and she shows it on the outside now.

Whatever happened to the girl that was?
Did she go inside, because it's cold out here?

--- Instrumental ---

So many men have deceived her
Others will come and take her strength
She hides the hurt as they leave her
And then she takes everything that her system can stand.

Didn't she think that I'd seen someone in pain before?
She's dying and she knows it
She's dying and she shows it on the outside now.

Whatever happened to the girl that was?
Did she go inside, because it's cold out here?
