She remembers, oh she remembers,
When she was a little girl, no tears did she shed.
With her long blond hair, thin and straight,
Her eyes big and blue knowing,
More than she can ever tell,

Only to be reminded of what she did wrong.
Don’t touch her, oh, dare not touch her.

Dragged down the stairs, head hitting each one,
Crying already, she knows what’s to come.
Don’t touch her, oh, never touch her.
But she remembers, she always remembers,
The time he went for her brother.
She stepped in the way, took it for him,
Only to keep his blue eyes from crying,
So he can sleep in peace and not fear.
Don’t touch her, oh, simply don’t touch her.
Forever she remembers, she never forgets,
That too many things have
