Elephant Project - Roxanne Pt. II

Written and Arranged by The Elephant Project

Only by the night when it’s dark outside
Roxanne’s putting on all those dim red lights.
She doesn’t love the ones who care;
Selling her body drives her into despair.
Only by the night when she’s out of sight
the cheeks so red and the jeans so tight.
Can’t anyone help her? Why don’t you care a bit?
‘cause lately she’s been acting like she doesn’t give a shit.

Ref:
I can’t say that there’s nothing at all that you could do for her,
I have seen how the lights went on when I met that girl.

Only by the day when the moon’s away
Roxanne’s working hard to hide her face so grey.
A different girl since the night has passed,
but the night drags on while the days go by fast.
Dusk will come eventually, Roxanne puts on the light
and the sweet red charm shines on so bright.
A routine that got stuck in her empty head
and she won’t ever get rid of it until her head is dead.

Ref:
I can’t say that there’s nothing at all that you could do for her,
I have seen how the lights went on when I met that girl.

And as the nights went on,
Roxanne has lost while she thought
she’d gain so much.
Well, I know she always knew,
she always knew…
