Da Da Da Da...
Verse 1
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
Verse 2
The path that I'm walking I must go alone
I must take the baby steps 'til I'm full grown, full grown
Fairytales don't always have a happy ending, do they?
And I foresee the dark ahead if I stay
Chorus 2
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.
Bridge
Like the little schoolmate in the school yard
We'll play jacks and uno cards
I'll be your best friend and you'll be mine, Valentine
Yes, you can hold my hand if you want to
'Cause I want to 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 instead of clarity, peace, serenity
Chorus 3
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.
