Lyrics

Liza radley, see the girl with long hair
See her creeping 'cross summer lawns at midnight
And all the people in the town where we live say "she's not quite right" she don't fit in with a small town
They just can't understand why she doesn't say much
But in a darkened room it's for their lives only she cries
Liza radley, see her jump through loneliness
Liza radley, take me when you go

And as the people pass by, their heads in the air
Haunted with their noise, she recalls a lonely sigh
But no matter what they say, in her mind she knows
Their dream of life they won't ever find

And all the people in the town where we live say "she's not quite right" she don't fit in with a small town
They just can't understand she's doesn't say much
But in a darkened room it's for their lives only she cries
Liza radley, I pledge myself to you alone
She kissed my face and said "love means nothing at all"
She kissed my face and said "life means nothing at all"
