latch key princess

daddy was never there

with a crooked smile never really cared

oh well

she's such a beautiful girl

afraid to speak so she read instead

thinking do i look like the magazine said i should?

am i a beautiful girl?

so where is my angel

has she climbed out the window

is she waving or drowning

with a broken heart tied around her neck

is she waving or drowning

with a broken heart she's drifting away

there's a star in the sky in the city

she sleeps tonight

she'll be alright

oh yeah

she's such a beautiful girl

she's such a beautiful girl

hair dyed black with a tear in her eye

as she took off with that guy who said

she's such a beautiful girl

now all she wants is to go home

left with nothing but a bloody nose

oh well

she was a beautiful girl

she's a latch key princess

she's a latch key princess

a latch key princess

she's a latch key princess

there's a star in the sky in the city

she sleeps tonight

she'll be alright

oh yeah

she's such a beautiful girl

she's such a beautiful girl

and now she's drifting away

she's such a beautiful girl

and now she's drifting away

she's such a beautiful girl
