She won't fall for the dream
She wasn't like other L .A. girls
And that's what's intrigued me
She got away with just a scratch
Don't look back, don't look back
Only your heart knows what's right
Feeling strange, time goes by
Learning lessons on heartaches
She slipped right through my,
slipped right through my mind
Time soon tells us what falls apart
Though that doesn't stop me
With her lovers and broken hearts
There's just no time for that
Only her eyes know what they see
What's inside or meant to be
Learning lessons on heartaches
Got a fight in this world
She slipped right through my
Slipped right through my mind
There's just no time for that
Only your heart knows what's right
Find what's real, what's inside
Learning lessons on heartaches
An American girl got a bite in this world
She slipped right through my mind
Learning lessons on heartache
An American girl got a bite in this world
She slipped right through my
Slipped right through my mind
Yeah, slipped right through my mind
