Patricia

(album: Devil's Night Out - 1990)

I see my girl's been forced to hide
A brand new emptiness inside.
I wish that I could fill the space.
It's not my place to take the place.
She's been hurt and she's been lost before.
This loss has her alone once more.
Even though my girl's not alone
She stays together strong as stone.
She stops my rain, she calms my storm.
Miracles she can perform.
I've seen tough times, she's seen me through.
And always knew just what to do.
So many rely on her, I'm one of them and I know it.
When demons haunt inside of her she tries hard not to show it.
I've seen my girl forced to take
Pain, tragedy, and much heartache.
The tears she hides, the smile she fakes.
And through it all, she doesn't break.
I don't know where she finds the strength.
I'm only glad she can.
Just when I think my girl is down, she's on her feet again.
She stops my rain, she calms my storm.
Miracles she can perform.
I've seen tough time, she's seen me through.
And always knows just what to do.
So many rely on her, I'm one of them and I know it.
When demons haunt inside of her, she fights hard not to show it.
I've seen her world before my eyes.
Get filled with evil, painful, spiteful lies.
Still she fights, still she tries.
And will fight until she dies.
