what's a girl to do?

we walked arm in arm

but i didn't feel his touch

the desire i'd first tried to hide

that tingling inside was gone

and when he asked me: 'do you still love me?'

i had to look away

i didn't want to tell him

that my heart grows colder with each day

when you've loved so long

that the thrill is gone

and your kisses at night

are replaced with tears

and when your dreams are on

a train to train-wreck town

then i ask you now

what's a girl to do?

he said he'd take me away

that we'd work things out

and i didn't want to tell him

but it was then i had to say

over the times we've shared

it's all blackened out

and my bat lightning heart

wants to fly away

when you've loved so long

that the thrill is gone

and your kisses at night

are replaced with tears

and when your dreams are on

a train to train-wreck town

then i ask you now

what's a girl to do?
