Little Girl
Little girl with big black curls
Eyes so wide and open to the world
She used to think she could fly
Her backyard, a runway to the sky
A strong start, a leap so high
And if it didn't happen, it just wasn't her time
Little girl, don't shut those eyes
Little girl, reach up and touch the sky
Curiosity, down every new street
With a little red skirt and a hope that's hardly concrete
And most every day, she'd wait for the clock to change
One eleven, then five fifty-five
Just wishing to fly
Little girl, don't shut those eyes
Little girl, reach up and touch the sky
Oh, sweet innocence, don't let go
Oh, your sweet, sweet innocence, don't let go
Little girl, don't shut those eyes
Little girl, reach up and touch the sky
Eyes so wide and open to the world
She used to think she could fly
Her backyard, a runway to the sky
A strong start, a leap so high
And if it didn't happen, it just wasn't her time
Little girl, don't shut those eyes
Little girl, reach up and touch the sky
Curiosity, down every new street
With a little red skirt and a hope that's hardly concrete
And most every day, she'd wait for the clock to change
One eleven, then five fifty-five
Just wishing to fly
Little girl, don't shut those eyes
Little girl, reach up and touch the sky
Oh, sweet innocence, don't let go
Oh, your sweet, sweet innocence, don't let go
Little girl, don't shut those eyes
Little girl, reach up and touch the sky
