Laura Nyro - When I Was A Freeport And You Were The Main Drag Lyrics
Vanessa's Father.He liked to be alonecreating works of artwhich he painted in a cottage made of stoneone day I crept insideand I was unaware of what I was going to findwell the pictures opened up my mindI saw sculptures of young lovers intertwined.And on their bodies he had signed his nameand so I left that place w a different look upon my face.When I was 15 and he a certain charm the way he smiled at me and the way he gently touched my arm.And somehow we would always be aloneWhen it was time to take me homeand so we'd speed through the country sideIn his convertable we'd ride.Vanessa's Father was driving me home at night,and I never said word oh but somehow we just got here.Her father was driving me home at nightoh when I think back to thenI would count the days til I could go there again.oh no oh no oh noAnother weekend.Strange thoughts inside of me.Is it vanessa whom, I am really going there to seeI'd smoke a ciggerette, I thought so secretlybut the door it gently opened and he stood there smiling down at methen he pushed me backwards against the wallI looked up cause he's so tall and then he stared into my eyesand kissed me so hard I cried.Vanessa's father was sleeping w me at nightand I never said a word but somehow we just got hereher father was sleeping w me at nightwhen I think back then, I would count the days I could see him again.oh no oh no oh nothe shaft of lite would fall against my skinthat would seem sensual to him but I'm too young to use these qualitiesyou bet I must be evil I must be taintedHe'd breath against the girl he's paint
