She's faced the hardest times
And when her youthful world
Each time her slender shoulders
bore the weight of all her fears
And her sorrow no one hears still rings
in midnight silence through her ears
Let her cry, for she's a lady
Let her dream, for she's a child
Let the rain fall down upon her
And if by chance I should hold her
Let me hold her for a while
But if allowed just one confession
I would pick her from the garden to be
Be careful how you touch her,
The way she's always prayin',
for her debt she never holds
and the sorrow wind still blows
let her cry for she's a lady
let her dream for she's a child
Let the rain fall down upon her
She's a free and gentle flower,
She's a flower, worldwide
