"Here Stands A Woman" lyrics
Gillian Welch & David Rawlings Lyrics
"Here Stands A Woman"
You told me that you loved me
And that would never change
Now I'm looking in the mirror
And I know that I'm to blame
Cause it's all gone babe, like the song says
Fallen from her curls
Here stands a woman
Where there once was a girl
Come a long way from Danville
Where they wear that Danville curl
The mother and the father
Who kept me in their care
They're both gone like the ribbons
That I used to wear
But it's alright Ma things got tight Pa
So I went and pawned the pearls
Here stands a woman
Where there once was a girl
I come a long way from Danville
Where they wear that Danville curl
You told me that you loved me
And that would never change
But I'm looking in the mirror
I know I'm not the same
Cause it's all gone babe, like the song says
I been all around this world
Here stands a woman
