Poor Little Girl
George Harrison · Best Of Dark Horse [1989]
with her head in the air
there's a polistic world all around you
oh, honey boy
one thing is mine
that poor little girl
we must find you
there's a whole lotta love
just shaking inside of me
and i must figure out
why it's there
there's a bottomless heart
it's tucked into all of you
and it's wondering how much you care
poor little girl
poor little heart
there's a polistic world
all around you
oh, honey boy
one thing is mine
poor little girl
he must find you
there's a whole lotta love
(whole lotta love)
that's shaking inside of me
(whole lotta love)
i must figure out why it's there
there's a bottomless heart
(whole lotta love)
tucked into all of you
(whole lotta love)
and it's wondering
how much you care
poor little boy
heading the world
there's a polistic world all around you
that poor little girl
with her head in the air
that poor little boy
he must find you
there's a whole lotta love
(whole lotta love)
shaking inside of me
(whole lotta love)
i must figure out why it's there
there's a bottomless heart
(whole lotta love)
tucked into all of you
(whole lotta love)
and it's wondering
how much you care
there's a needing desire i have
(whole lotta love)
to express what's inside of me
(whole lotta love)
let's figure it out while it's still there
and an endless meltdown
(whole lotta love)
of the joy that you touch me with
(whole lotta love)
though it's almost too much for me to bare
poor little girl
