Lyrics
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
Oh, oh
Woah, woah
Oh, oh
Woah, woah, woah
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 shadows
Down here we stop to wonder
Cars on the freeway
Bright lights and thunder
Oh, oh
Woah, woah
Oh, oh
Woah, woah
Oh, oh
Woah, woah
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh
Woah, woah
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Woah, woah
Oh, oh
Woah, woah, woah
Oh, oh
Woah, woah
Oh, oh
