Bruce Hornsby - China Doll Lyrics
B. r. hornsbyYou lie over there in a bed with iron railsLike a frightened child in the cold light, so frailThings were going so well,just rolling alongNow, just when you think you got it all made,You think its all goneChina doll, Ive got something for youA few good words, a hand to help you get throughMay not be much, but now its all that I can doLay down your weary headDo whatever you gotta doPut on your strong face when theyre in the roomCant show signs of weakness; an unspoken rulePut on your strong face, act like nothings wrongWe can be so helpless, helpless and so strongChina doll, Ive got something for youA few good words, a hand to help you get throughMay not be much, but now its all that I can doTo ease your worried mindDo something to get throughWe bend and break, so fragile, its trueI say everythingll be alright but I dont have a clueThey say faith is a crutch, well whatever works for youIn a world where you never knowIll be there for you,Ill be there for you...China doll, Ive got something for youA few good words, a hand to help you get throughMay not be much, but now its all that I can doLay down your weary headDo whatever you gotta do
