I used to dream of angel wings and princesses Fantasize what life could be I'm still that girl wishing on a star Where I hope my fairytales will be Life has a way of turning days into years Here I am holding onto that little girl Entering a confusing world Trying to make my way Here I am holding on to that little girl Safe in her innocent world And so unafraid I used to cry when someone yelled at me Not ashamed to shake in fear I used to hold hands with my best friends Brave enough to show I care Life has a way of turning dreams into nightmares Here I am holding onto that little girl Entering a confusing world Trying to make my way Here I am holding on to that little girl Safe in her innocent world And so unafraid I still need to be held tight Told that I'm gonna be alright I'm still that little girl inside Under my big girl disguise Here I am holding on to that little girl Entering a brutal world I'm trying to find my place Here I am holding onto that little girl I know it'll be okay So I'm not afraid Here I am holding onto that little girl
