Poor girl, no Ma
Nothing much to speak of but a rough diamond
Sleep now and your angels will come, dear
Poor Matilda
Handcuffed to the wheel
And steering wildly
Through love´s fields, so blindly

Forever only takes its toll on some
But, tonight you´re sleeping alone without him
Tonight you´re sleeping alone without him
And everything went up in smoke like wildflowers
Wildflowers, dear

Poor girl, lonely
Shuffles through the parade
Of a sleepless circus serenade
Hold on, dear

Poor girl, no Ma
Sister steals her a coat
For the windless breezes
Sleep now and Jesus will come, dear

Forever only takes it´s toll on some
But, tonight you´re sleeping alone without him
Tonight you´re sleeping alone without him
And everything went up in smoke like wild flowers
Wildflowers, dear
