She will stay with him tonight
and wake up to chase the sun into her eyes
She looks through her fingers when she cries
to make sure that she's keeping him on side

She built a little world around her
She built a little world around her

She has seen every jail in town
through the eyes of her lovers that went down
She used to always be around
but now the rain runs down the wrinkles of her frown

She built a little world around her
She built a little world around her

She built a little world around her
She built a little world around her
But just look what good it did her
Oh, oh, oh, oh

But then you probably knew this already
