The smell of your skin lingers on me now
Your probably on your flight back to your home town
I need some shelter of my own protection baby
To be with myself and center clarity,Peace, Serenity
[CHORUS]
I hope you know, I hope you know
That this has nothing to do with you
It's personal, Myself and I
We've got some straightenin' out to do
And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket
But Ive got to get a move on with my life
Its 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 aloneI must take the baby steps until I'm full grown
Fairytales don't always have a happy ending, do they
And I foreseek the dark ahead if I stay
[CHORUS]
I hope you know, I hope you know
That this has nothing to do with youIt's personal, Myself and I
We've got some straightenin' out to do
And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket
But I've got to get a move on with my lifeIts time to be a big girl nowA
nd big girls don't cryLike the little school mate in the school yardWe'll play jacks and uno cardsIll be your best friend and you'll be mineValentineYes you can hold my hand if u want toCause I want to hold yours tooWell be playmates and lovers and share our secret worldsBut its time for me to go homeIts getting late, dark outsideI need to be with myself instead of*, clarityPeace,Serenity[CHORUS]I hope you know, I hope you knowThat this has nothing to do with youIt's personal, Myself and IWe've got some straightenin' out to doAnd I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanketBut I've got to get a move on with my lifeIts time to be a big girl nowand big girls don't cryDon't cryDon't cryDon't cryla da da da
