She was only just a girl in a picturenBut he thought if I could only make her smilenThen she'd be minenHe'd folded it, re-folded it so many timesnHe'd already lost some of her to the creasesnPrecious piecesnnHe wondered how close he'd ever been to hernIn this ebb and flow of the distance between usnMaybe she got the same busnAnd he left a trail of string wherever he wentnWhen he was sleepin' he tied it to his toenIf she crossed it then he'd knownnBut he knew that all was unravelin'nAnd he was bare, stripped of his skinnLike the ribs of a broken umbrellanStickin' out of a binnnHe's pull his collar up against the windnAgainst those who said that tryin'nWas the first step to failin', oh, he was railin'nAnd filled with new found purpose and pridenHe'd make somethin' of this heady glownNow where would she go?nnBut what do I know 'cause all is unravelin'nAnd he was bare, stripped off his skinnLike the ribs of a broken umbrellanStickin' out of a binnnBut he knew how to fix it, dear Liza, dear LizanWith time's great elixir, dear Liza, dear LizannShe was only just a girl in a picturenBut he thought if I could only make her smilenThen she'd be minenOh, the thought of being faced with hernGave him the fear and sometimes in the mornin' a tentnOh Lord, give him strengthnn'Cause he knew that all was unravelin'nAnd he was bare, he was stripped of his skinnYeah, he knew that all was unravelin'nAnd he was bare, he was stripped of his skinnLike the ribs of a broken umbrellanStickin' out of a binnnStickin' out of a binnStickin' out of a binnStickin' out of a bin
