The Doll

This little girl lost her doll on the muddy road

She came from behind and pulled at my arm

I said, "I'm sorry, I have not seen it"

She said, "Please call 9-1-1"

I said, "Little one, it is a doll"

She said it is her "only friend", and so I dialed 9-1-1

They said, "Hello, what is the problem?"

I said, "I'm a little concerned, a little doll has gone"

They hung up the phone and told me to tell the girl to buy another one

Thousands of tears came sprawling out of her Cupid eyes

We were both just there, standing there

Wet from the rain in Coventry

I had just finished digesting dinner in a Thai restaurant

I was there on my own, comfort eating

I knew I had dinner saved for me at home

I said, "Okay, well, we will search the streets until you find the doll"

All through this night, no sign of this doll

We even went by the ring roads

In case it fell out the window

So hard

So hard

So hard

So hard

So hard

So hard

So hard

To let go

So hard

So hard

So hard

To let go

So hard

So hard

So hard

To let go

So hard

So hard

So hard

To let go

So hard

So hard

So hard

To let you go

So hard

So hard

So hard

To let go

So hard

So hard

So hard

To let go

So hard

So hard

So hard

To let you go
