[Verse 1]
She was a little girl
And I was only just learning to crawl
I would call her name
To see her beautiful eyes glow
Oh, look at me
Oh, look at me
[Pre-Chorus]
They tell you to hold on
And say that, one day, you'll understand
Well, I'm still waiting
Yeah, I'm still here
[Chorus]
I want something more
Something kind
Something pure
[Verse 2]
Oh, she was a little jonesy
Oh, I should know
And he was little backwards man
With nothing much to show
[Pre-Chorus]
And everything she said
Would leave me cold
And everything he did
Leads to nowhere
It all amounts to this...
(It all amounts to this)
[Chorus]
All this time
I never knew
Who you really were
[Instrumental Interlude]
[Bridge 1]
We pass it down
It keeps repeating
We break and run
We keep deceiving
[Bridge 2]
I am becoming (I am become)
I am becoming (I am the one)
I am reflection (I am the sun)
I am the shadow (I am the gun)
[Chorus]
I want something more
Something kind
Something pure
