Rick Springfield - Beautiful prize
Tekst :
The father giveth, and the father taketh away
Johanna prays in her bed
He drinks his beer to the TV chatter
Thinks dark thoughts in his head
When the house that he keeps with his hard won pay
Is finally asleep after his brutal day
He turns his eyes on his beautiful prize
Johanna watches her door open just a crack
And a hand that once held her runs down the length of her back
Her fallen angel lies down on her bed
So much confusion in her beautiful head
Johanna closes her eyes
In a house full of secrets the truth doesn t matter
Johanna buries her shame and dreams of redemption
They just scatter, she grows numb to the pain
She can t remember how it was before
And she doesn t know who she is anymore
She s in disguise as his Beautiful Prize
Johanna watches her life from the outside
And she dreams that one day she ll fly free from this mess
She s a hawk trying to soar with a broken wing
And she doesn t talk anymore about anything
She just closes her eyes
She just can t stand his anger, she just can t bear his heat
She takes a long hard look at life on the street, yeah
In a house full of secrets the truth doesn t matter
And any dreams of salvation, they just shatter
Johanna watches the world from the outside,
And she dreams of the day she ll fly free from this mess
She doesn t know what she s waiting for
Cause there s nothing left in this house anymore
And in his eyes she s just a Beautiful Prize
Oh, Johanna just a Beautiful Prize...
Yeah, Johanna...
Oh, Hanna... Inne utwory

In a silent world
I had lived without sight or sound
In all that time
You know I felt that shame
But I put the blame on everyone around
In all that time
And I had lost all of my power, my...
Can t believe
Out of time
Look down, but I m afraid to fall
Solitude
On sleeping sand
That voice is taking me away
And I feel I m floating downstream
Emptiness
Just like I ve never been born
Beware of whats around you. the elements of life will
sometimes take you in. bad things always surround you.
its your choice now to think. crime is easy to come by
and temptation is bound to bring you down. corruption
distorts your judgement and it seems...
Always waitin? for someone
To make me happy, pick me up
I realize that someone is me
What you call life, that ain?t livin?
Bless the child that?s got his own
It?s my season, now I stand alone
Just thought that I would let...
Znowu to samo
znowu biegnę bo coś każe biec
chciałabym bardzo
choć na chwilę zobaczyć cię
biegnę za szybko
gubiąc po drodze wszystko co jeszcze ważne jest
nic się nie stało
mówią ci co mijają mnie
niezwykła to siła jest
niesie mnie coraz dalej od ciebie
nie mogę zatrzymać się
