It’s 3 o’clock in the morning
She’s alone in Lincoln Park
All the drunks and hopeless outlaws
Have come out into the dark
At two a thief took her money
Her phone and keys stolen away
Now she wanders like a vagrant
So helpless with no place to stay
I’ve been searching for some right in this city with no lights
I’m trying to find my way home but I can’t see where I’m going
She stopped an hailed for a taxi
“Can you help me out sir, won’t you please?
I’ve gone and lost all my money
But could you have some charity?”
He cracked his window with a smile
“I’m sorry ma’am no rides for free
But don’t you worry now, young lady
There’s other ways you can pay me!”
I’ve been searching for some right in this city with no lights
I’m trying to find my way home but I can’t see where I’m going
She likes to think that it’s different
Her eyes closed to the city’s scares
But with each and every footstep
She had to face the evils that were there
I’ve been searching for some right in this city with no lights
I’m trying to find my way home but I can’t see where I’m going
