Audrey Lyrics

Audrey lyrics

Audrey was a girl that sat in my classroom 
she never said a word she just
sat there so furtively
I never noticed her until I heard the
radio
telling about the way she took her life
today it's all upon the
covers of the papers
about her folks at home I guess her daddy is a drinker

her mummy left her when she was just a tiny child
tell me Audrey was
that the first time you felt abandonment

Hold on baby don't be
sorry
cause every day has it's up's and downs
Hold on baby they'll be
sunshine
every life has it's stormy nights

Come to think about it
there are some things 
I can recall about her arms they had blue spots on
them
I remember then thinking these thoughts to myself 
Is it wrong to
wonder about somebody else's problems 
I'm not burdened with at
all

Hold on baby don't be sorry
cause every day has it's up's and
downs
Hold on baby they'll be sunshine
every life has it's stormy
nights

Oh there there she lays down in the button of the river
tell
me what crime did it take that tore this girls only willingness
but I will
pray that someday she'll rise again

Well if you're there I hope you can
see my sorrow and the pain of guilt
I never asked you how you were 
But
one thing I can assure you after wittnessing 
what has been done I will open
my heart to the new girl that sits next door

Hold on baby don't be
sorry
cause every day has it's up's and downs
Hold on baby they'll be
sunshine
every life has it's stormy nights

Hold on baby don't be
sorry
cause every day has it's up's and downs
Hold on baby they'll be
sunshine in your life
