They may not open
What if they open
Would you be alive
Everyone falls
But not everyone rises
Why don't you get up
And rise again for me
What if the world were
a little more perfect
Just stop crying or
would you take the leap
What if the world
were a little more perfect
Would you open your eyes
and blink again for me
for me...
What about friendship
What about friends
You said the whole world
was against you
And it all had to end
What about love
What about family
What about all that
you have to live for
What if the world were
a little more perfect
Just stop crying or
would you take the leap
What if the world
were a little more perfect
Would you open your eyes
and blink again for me
for me...
It isn't easy here without you
Why did you leave me
What am I supposed to do
without you...
What if the world
What if the world were
were a little more perfect
a little more perfect
Just stop crying
Just stop crying or
would you take the leap
or would you take the leap
What if the world were
a little more perfect
Would you open your heart
What if the world
were a little more perfect
Just stop crying
or would you take the leap
What if the world
were a little more perfect
Would you open your heart
and blink again for me
for me...
for me......
简 介
In this fact-based cable TV drama, Thora Birch stars as Liz Murray, the daughter of a loving but extremely dysfunctional Bronx family. Weighed down with a coke-addict father and an HIV-infected mother, Liz spends her early years shuttling from squalid apartment to public shelter and back again. At 15, she breaks away from her home life (what there is of it) and takes to the streets. Only after the death of her mother does Liz develop the determination to better her lot in life. Virtually begging her way back into high school, she becomes a superb student, and at 19, with funding from a scholarship and a part-time job with the New York Public Interest Group, "born loser" Liz enters Harvard University. The real Liz Murray co-produced the film and plays a cameo role as a social worker. Homeless to Harvard: The Liz Murray Story premiered April 7, 2003, on the Lifetime network.本回答被提问者采纳
