Nowhere Girl

We were wandering down by the river, that day, just me and bout five of my friends
We were all getting ready to start the fifth grade, as summer had come to an end
I could see that something washed up on the banks what it was wasn't clear to me yet
The closer we came, it was clear to my eyes this was something we'd never forget
Nowhere girl, under the clear autumn skies breathless and exposed
Nowhere girl, under the tender moonlight naked and alone
Oh, oh, oh, oh
None of us ever had seen her before, you'd remember such a strange face
Her mouth shut like a confessional door, like she still had something to say
Nowhere girl, under the clear autumn skies breathless and exposed
Nowhere girl, under the tender moonlight naked and alone
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, Nowhere Girl how did you end up here?
(No where girl)
Her blue eyes froze like a fawn in headlights caught in some dangerous game
Then we gathered some leaves from the base of the trees and made a blanket to cover her frame
Oh, Nowhere Girl how did you end up here?
(No where girl)
The very next day we returned to the place but, the nowhere girl was nowhere
Our blanket of leaves had been lost to a breeze, like confetti thrown in the air
We each had a theory and conspiracy of how the nowhere girl disappeared
To this day, I can still see her face, haunting me for thirty-five years
Nowhere girl, under the clear autumn skies breathless and exposed
Nowhere girl, under the tender moonlight naked and alone
We were young autumn skies we were young, under moonlight
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
