Girl On My Shoulder
It's a strange thing to realize
that he would have made a nice one to hold
When we're old and wrinkly
It's a nice thing to think about
How I knew he was always worth my time
Though we tried but it didn't work out
When I was younger I knew myself
And knew what I deserved
When I was younger I trusted myself
To act on what I observe
Now that I'm older
I could use a little of that girl on my shoulder
It's a joyful thing to know he found
The love that he deserved
He's not cursed by my uncertainty
It's a wonder to see him hold a babe
See the lovelight in his eyes
As he cries as he used to do
When I was younger I knew myself
And knew what I deserved
When I was younger I trusted myself
To act on what I observe
Now that I'm older
I could use a little of that girl on my shoulder
that he would have made a nice one to hold
When we're old and wrinkly
It's a nice thing to think about
How I knew he was always worth my time
Though we tried but it didn't work out
When I was younger I knew myself
And knew what I deserved
When I was younger I trusted myself
To act on what I observe
Now that I'm older
I could use a little of that girl on my shoulder
It's a joyful thing to know he found
The love that he deserved
He's not cursed by my uncertainty
It's a wonder to see him hold a babe
See the lovelight in his eyes
As he cries as he used to do
When I was younger I knew myself
And knew what I deserved
When I was younger I trusted myself
To act on what I observe
Now that I'm older
I could use a little of that girl on my shoulder
