the path that i'm walking,
i must go alone,
i must take the baby steps until i'm full grown,
fairytales don't always have a happy ending, do they?
and i foresee the dark ahead if i stay.
i hope u know, i hope u know,
that this has nothing to do with u,
it's personal, myself and i,
we've got some straightenin' out to do.
and i'm gonna miss u like a child misses their blanket,
but i've 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.
like the little school mate in the school yard,
we'll play jacks and uno cards.
i'll be your best friend and you'll be mine valentine.
yes u can hold my hand if u want to,
'cause i want to hold yours too.
well 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.
