Patti can't take it, she gotta give it back
The world is a big place and she's frightened
And if you kiss her, she gotta kiss you back
She couldn't stand a kiss for free
On her own
And while she's playing with
All she exchanged
Yawning at the multitude
Her world is a big place
Full of toys and boys and teddy bears
Where nothing is for free
That's what her mother told her once
And Patti has a big, big heart
Bigger than her life
She just forgot the most fantastic thing
Within
She's sitting in her glasshouse
But she does not dare
To throw the stones to make it all come true
Of what she's dreaming of and so it seems
To me
Patti can't take it, she gotta give it back
Her world is a big place and she's frightened
But if you love her, maybe she'll accept
Maybe she'll take your love for free
On her own
All alone
