Lyrics

I had a girl her name was liezah
She had only one desire
To walk the cobbled streets alone
Heading anywhere but home

With crowley as her close companion
His diaries went hand in hand with
All the men that she has known
She leaves their silver but keeps their gold

So lawyers, doctors please beware
Of that girl with wavy hair
For she will cut you down to size
Reveal the truth behind your disguise

Liezah
Just passed by yer
Now you're standing
Empty handed
Liezah
Can't despise her
She'll change your look
She'll have you hooked

The city sleeps as she's arriving
Tongue tied and twisted was her timing
Her eyes glazed in deep despair
Those crocodile tears they don't care

Don't turn your back cos she'll be gone
Chasing shadows in the sun
All along the dusty road
Where she goes well we'll never know

And everytime I think of liezah
I break down and I start crying
Although she tore me apart
There's still a place for that girl in my heart

Liezah
Just passed by yer
Now you're standing
Empty handed
Liezah
Can't despise her
She'll change your look
She'll have you hooked
