In her time
now embracing so many years
She would mirror the joy and tears
that were destined to pass
All that time
she saw splendour and vanity
adding worship and jealousy
to what no one possessed
all her beauty would last
serving models and movie queens
With a heart made of stone
(a heart made of stone)
She embodied our every dreams
but our hearts were never her home
'cause she wanders alone
In her time
she has brightened the darkest days
on display to enhance the craze
of the powers that were
All that time
she saw more than her share of things
Like a bird that has lost its wings
just a dawn in their world
To be seen but not hear
serving models and movie queens
With a heart made of stone
(a heart made of stone)
She embodied our every dreams
but our hearts were never her home
she wanders alone
she wanders alone
Yes, she wanders alone
She wanders alone
La Peregrina
La Peregrina
La Peregrina
La Peregrina
Hung paintings high above the wall
to share your light and uniqueness
She saw the mighty rise and fall
Oooh holding their hand, never forget
Pray that it goes flying by
She wasn't born, she'll never die
And never asking why
And then in different state of mind
(and then in different state of mind)
Oooh repeat these two words of affection
Untouched by anything but time
(untouched by anything but time)
Ooooh, frightfully close to perfection
But later if youth dies and drowns
the memories remain somehow
If I could hold her now
La Peregrina
La Peregrina
La Peregrina
La Peregrina
All that time
she had sweet talk and bare-faced lies
Not surrender and sacrifice
She was lost, found and sold
In her time
there was no one to take her place
From the first to the final days
She would never grow old
If her story was told
serving models and movie queens
On their celluloid film
She embodied their wealth and dreams
but their hearts were never her home
'cause she wanders alone
La Peregrina
La Peregrina
La Peregrina
La Peregrina
