Sweet Lady Jane


She was the prettiest girl you've ever seen
Everybody said little Jane's gonna be a beauty queen
Like a rare flower
A summer breeze
She had the kinda something
That could bring you to your knees
But no one heard her cry at night
And no one saw the pain inside
When he opened her door to turn out the light
In her mind little Jane ran away
A hundred thousand times

Sweet lady Jane
That's what her daddy used to say
Now the voices in the dark
Just won't go away
Sweet lady Jane
That's what her daddy used to say
All the voices in her head
She can't stand the sound of her name
Sweet lady Jane

Now she spends her nights looking for the thing she lost
She's willing to pay the price
No matter what the cost
She's just trying to find the little girl she was before
Before he started creepin in
And locking up her door
You can take her home
If the money's right
You can do Anything you want
But you can't kiss her goodnight

Sweet lady Jane
Can't stand the pain
Can't forget the times
That he kept whispering her name
Sweet lady Jane
Just can't run away
ALl the voices in her head
She can't stand the sound of her name
