And big girls don't cry
But I've got to get a move on with my life
I hope you know, I hope you know
I need some shelter of my own protection, baby
Yes, you can hold my hand if you want to
Like the little school mate in the school yard
And I foresee the dark ahead if I stay
And share our secret worlds
That this has nothing to with you
And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket
That this has nothing to do with you
And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket
To be with myself and center
And big girls don't cry
It's personal, myself and I
I must take the baby steps 'til I'm full grown, full grown
But I've got to get a move on with my life
We'll be playmates and lovers
Clarity, peace, serenity
Clarity, peace, serenity
I hope you know, I hope you know
It's getting late, dark outside
Fairy tales don't always have a happy ending, do they?
I'll be your best friend and you'll be mine
It's personal, myself and I
Valentine
We've got some straightenin' out to do
But it's time for me to go home
We've got some straightenin' out to do
That this has nothing to do with you
'Cause I want to hold yours too
And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket
We'll play jacks and Uno cards
We've got some straightenin' out to do
It's time to be a big girl now
The path that I'm walkin', I must go alone
Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry
And big girls don't cry
But I've got to get a move on with my life
It's time to be a big girl now
It's time to be a big girl now
I hope you know, I hope you know
I need to be with myself, and center
It's personal, myself and I
