China Doll

You lie over there in a bed with iron rails Like a frightened child in the cold light, so frail Things were going so well, just rolling along Now, just when you think you got it all made, You think it's all gone China Doll, I've got something for you A few good words, a hand to help you get through May not be much, but now it's all that I can do Lay down your weary head Do whatever you gotta do Put on your strong face when they're in the room Can't show signs of weakness; an unspoken rule Put on your strong face, act like nothing's wrong We can be so helpless, helpless and so strong China Doll, I've got something for you A few good words, a hand to help you get through May not be much, but now it's all that I can do To ease your worried mind Do something to get through We bend and break, so fragile, it's true I say everything'll be all right, but I don't have a clue They say faith is a crutch, well, whatever works for you In a world where you never know I'll be there for you, I'll be there for you ... China Doll, I've got something for you A few good words, a hand to help you get through May not be much, but now it's all that I can do Lay down your weary head Do whatever you gotta do
