She's pulling out the pin That lets her hair fall down She's pulling out the pin She shakes her head And it goes tumblingHer smile was out of place So she swept it off her faceLet me find the words and say them Like some softly whispered "Amen"But she starts to pull away And the lights begin to dim Is she thinking of me?
