Huskisson Street

See that girl she stands alone

Waits on the corner

In the rain and the cold

Knows everything she needs to know

But she's too young

Too young to look so old

All the things that she could have done

But when she needed help she found no-one

Just a man so alone

That he looks to her for what he should have found a home

In this town of broken dreams

Hope must never concede

Though the pain we often find

Gems that the future may hide

See that girl does she make you cry

You've heard her story repeated a million times

What does it take to make you see

She says: Her future's not what it used to be

All the things that she could have done

But when she needed help she found no one

Just a man so alone

That he looks to her for what he should have found a home

In this town of broken dreams

Hope must never concede

Through the pain we often find

Gems that the future may hide
