Talking loud, she's talking clear But no one really wants to hear No one really wants to know And her loneliness still grows Was it shame or was it fear When his devil's face appeared? And the wall between them grows The wall between them grows Tonight, velvet night He met her on the school yard Funny man behind the fence Started with a real deception He didn't try in vain Who has failed this, who once more? A tall man offering sweets No one wants to think about it And evil sows its seeds He tries to hold her in his arms He always tries to keep her warm Blue-eyed girl, grown up to fast Lost her innocence at last Cruel revenge hurt in her heart Breaks dependences apart And now he's begging on his knees Lay your guilty hands on me! And the wall between them grows The wall between them grows Tonight, velvet night I should be so lucky But I can't help feeling blue I felt no real attention Unsatisfied by youth You brought up a lonely child Without a human shape Made the greatest sacrifice Realized it much too late Too late
