A city on its own, along the western coast
She stands alone
Her land is low and wide
With mountains none in sight
She stands alone
She's so beautiful
She looks wonderful
But inside she's dead
She's like paradise
Drawn in and enticed
But inside she's dead
Wayward daughter
Daddy sees your pain
Wayward daughter
Please come home again
She's got everthing she needs
At least that's how it seems
She stands alone
Every day's a sunny sky
Every evening filled with lights
She stands alone
There's more than meets the eye
Careful don't look twice
You might see her scars
Hidden out of sight
Unless you dig and find
That she's dead and dry
Oh dead and dry
Wayward daughter
Daddy sees your pain
Wayward daughter
You'll come home someday
Wayward daughter
No need to pretend
Wayward daughter
Please come home again
Wayward daughter
Daddy sees your pain
Wayward daughter
Please come home again
Wayward daughter
No need to pretend
Wayward daughter
Please come home again
