[Intro]
The smell of your skin lingers on me now
You re probably on your flight back to your hometown
I need some shelter of my own protection baby
Be with myself in center, clarity, peace, serenity
I hope you know, I hope you know
That this has nothing to do with you
It s personal, myself and I
We got some straightening out to do
And I m gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket
But I ve gotta get a move on with my life
It s time to be a big girl now
And big girls don t cry
Don t cry, don t cry, don t cry
The path that I m walking, I must go alone
I must take the baby steps til I m full grown
Fairy tales don t always have a happy ending do they
And I forseek the dark ahead if I stay
I hope you know, I hope you know
That this has nothing to do with you
It s personal, myself and I
We got some straightening out to do
And I m gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket
But I ve gotta get a move on with my life
It s time to be a big girl now
And big girls don t cry
Like a little school mate in the school yard
We ll play jacks and uno cards
I ll be your best friend
And you ll be my valentine
Yes you can hold my hand if you want to
Cuz I wanna hold yours too
We ll be playmates and lovers and share our secret worlds
But it s time for me to go home
It s getting late, dark outside
I need to be with myself in center, clarity, peace,
serenity
I hope you know, I hope you know
That this has nothing to do with you
It s personal, myself and I
We got some straightening out to do
And I m gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket
But I ve gotta get a move on with my life
It s time to be a big girl now
And big girls don t cry
Don t cry, Dont cry, Dont cry
Na ra ra ra ra raaaa
