Barclay James Harvest - Vanessa Simmons lyrics

Vanessa Simmons, funny kind of name

Young and yet wise, only a child

Wake up in the morning, frown across your face

I know your name, but not your place

Wish I could show you how to live your life

But I'm not sure which one of us is right

God only knows the tears I've cried

Vanessa Simmons, funny kind of name

Have you got life wrong, is it just a game?

Wake up in the morning, find a friend at night

Friends are hard to find, especially at night

Wish I could show you how to live your life

But I'm not sure which one of us is right

God only knows, and He's the one that shows, the tears I've cried

And if I asked you for the sun, would you not say

"Light's not the only way to be"?

And if I asked you for your love, would you not say

"Love is not what you want from me"?

And would I not be right

To sit alone and wonder every night?

Vanessa Simmons, funny kind of name

Young and yet wise, only a child

Wish I could show you how to live your life

But I'm not sure which one of us is right

God only knows, and He's the one that shows, the tears I've crie
