A word from her is worth ten from me Her main concern is honesty She beat the selfishness right out of me The wild eyed child She's my Libertine
My only books were women's looks And the more I read, the less I said
She wanted to search inside me To find this so-called purity She acts the films that I can't see The wild eyed child She's my Libertine
She showed me the slim chance I'd got And all the friendships baby, that I had not Be sure she has the guts of three The wild eyed child She's my Libertine
