If I looked inside your heart
What would I find 
Would I see the pain 
And the dreams you left behind 

Who would I see 
A child or a mother
An innocent mind
And a so like no other 

Did you have any where to go
When the lights at the end
Of your block didn't glow
Did you have any where to hide
When you were scared
While the storm raged inside 

If you looked on the mirror 
Would it be who you hoped to see
The lines on your face tell a different tale
While the stars point out your dreams

Did you take a chance in New York City 
Where the Marque lights shine so bright 
Or did you try your hand in Vegas
Before your money was gone
And they threw you out into the night
