Shayla Songtext
von Blondie

Shayla worked in a factory
She wasn′t history
She's just a number
One day she gets her final pay
And she goes far away

Green trees call to me
I am free but life is so cheap
Scenery is still outside of me
All alone, trapped by its beauty


Shayla turned to run away
To leave in peace and end her stay
Years of fear were in her way
Lost in space and down she came

Suddenly
Some subtle entity
Some cosmic energy
Brushed her like shadow

Down here we stop to wonder
Cars on the freeway
Bright lights and thunder
