Verse 2 
I never asked, she never said 
And when she cried I turned my head 
She dreamed her dreams behind closed doors 
That made them easy to ignore 
And I know, I know, I missed the forest for the trees 
Now all I have to show 
Or would she walk out the door? 
The cold facts and nothin' more 
 
Chorus 
 
Chorus 2 
Her eyes are blue, her hair is long,   sixy four 
she was born, in Batton Rouge,  
Her father's tall, her mother's gone, 
She moved out when she was two, 
The way she laughed, the way she loved, 
Oh my God what did I do?
