Gordon Lightfoot
Poor Little Allison
[Verse 1]
Poor little Allison
Standing in the night wind
Laughing out loud
Turnin' her face to the summer rain

[Verse 2]
Poor little Allison
Never had much goin'
Hard to forget
Always in step with the world she's in

[Bridge]
Never knowin', never feelin'
Showin' so much pride
Never sayin' what she's thinkin'
Or feelin' deep inside

[Verse 3]
Poor little Allison
Dreaming of the right one
Laughing out loud
Lost in a crowd of fair weather friends

[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
Never knowin', never feelin'
Showin' so much pride
Never sayin' what she's thinkin'
Or feelin' deep inside

[Verse 1]
Poor little Allison
Standing in the night wind
Wishing out loud
Turnin' her face to the summer rain

[Outro]
Hard to forget
Always in step with the world she's in
