Bonanza

She's a blur She is everything at once A candle burning brighter than the sun At the top of her lungs Under cellophane she hums Trying to explain in song what the sleepless nights destroy And all of those old cowboys from up on the silver screen They're coming back home to protect her on TV 38 And all of that auld lang syne flickers in black and white Down at the foot of her bed in silence She's a blur She's pink ribbons in the sky The leaves are turning burnt oranges and lime In the back of her mind in the foster home she fled Where the monster won't stay dead On the sleepless nights he returns But all of those old cowboys won't let the bad guys win They're coming back home to protect her on TV 38 And all of that auld lang syne flickers in black and white Down at the foot of her bed in silence In silence Everybody was a pirate, babe Everybody was a pirate, babe
