Little Girl

Little girl with a heart so pure
You carry the weight of the world on your tiny shoulders
With a smile that could end a war
Sparkle in your eye so hopeful, hopeful
All alone to pick up the pieces
While you should be busy daydreamin’ oh
All that you needed was a little understandin’
Prayin’ for a little love
How could you know that some people take advantage
Make you feel like you’re not enough oh
I’m sorry that it took me so long
You won’t always have to be strong
Now won’t you take my hand
Together we are stronger
And now that I know better
I promise to protect you
Through the stormy weather
There’s too much pressure to keep up appearances
I used to lie and keep denyin’
Bury the truth, internalizin’ my pain
But I never wanted to shame you
Never intended to blame you
And despite all that you been through
You were brave enough to stay true
When all that you needed was a little understandin’
Prayin’ for a little love
How could you know that some people take advantage
Make you feel like you’re not enough oh
I’m sorry that it took me so long
You won’t always have to be strong
Now won’t you take my hand
Together we are stronger
And now that I know better
I promise to protect you
Through the stormy weather
I understand you now
And baby I can feel you now
And you can let the tears fall down
We made it through somehow
Together we are stronger
(Hey together we are)
And now that I know better
I promise to protect you
(I promise to protect you, I promise to protect you)
Through the stormy weather
Through the stormy weather
Together we are stronger
(Together we are stronger)
And now that I know better
(Now that I know better)
I promise to protect you
(Oh, oh protect protect you)
Through the stormy weather
(Through the stormy weather)
Through the stormy weather
Oh, little girl
Little girl, little girl

We always run, run to win the race
Givin’ all we got to win the first place
The trick is this track it never ends
So I’d rather walk instead
I been lost and found way too many times
And my heart’s been scarred for a while
And I don’t want to rush

And still I wanna give you a chance, oh
‘Cause I want your love

Oh said I want, said I want, said I want your love
I want your love, yeah I want your love

Since you came around I don’t feel the same
I’m not used to the sound the beat of my heart makes
It’s been so long since I’ve felt this way
But is it really worth the pain oh ooh
I’m so used to hidin’ the way I feel
I’m gonna need some time before letting you in
So afraid to go down that road again
But I’ll be alright if you take my hand, oh
‘Cause I want your love

Oh said I want, said I want, said I want your love

Walk Away
04:16
|
|||
Once upon a time I was mindin’ my business
Goin’ solo was enough
You came around, you got me fallin’
Though I swear I wasn’t lookin’ for love
You pulled me out of my cave baby
When I was doin’ just fine, oh yeah
And now you’re tryin’ to escape my love
Not sure you even know why
But do what you gotta do
Walk away, walk away boo
Do what you gotta do
Walk away, walk away boo
Do what you gotta do
Walk away, walk away boo
Do what you gotta do
Walk a— walk away boo
It’s so easy to get caught up in a feeling
Now it seems you’re picking fear over reason
You think that you’re the only one who’s scared?
I keep it classy by this sh*t ain’t fair
Feeling borderline desperate, delusional
I should have known better
See I was ready to dive in but now you got cold feet
Soon enough you’re gonna realize
You’ll never find another woman like me
Well go on with your bad self tough guy
See I won’t wait around ‘till you change your mind
They say to let it go, that’s how you know
So I’m gonna let the bird fly ooh
Do what you gotta do
Walk away, walk away boo
Do what you gotta do
Walk away, walk away boo
Do what you gotta do
Walk away, walk away boo
Do what you gotta do
Walk a— walk away boo
I’m too real, I’m too fly
And around me you come alive
I’m saying you can run
But you can’t hide from the truth, ooh baby
Hey, walk a— walk a— walk away
Walk a— walk a— now walk away now
Walk a— walk a— walk a— hey
Walk a— walk a— woah
Do what you gotta do
Walk away, walk away boo
Do what you gotta do
Walk away, walk away boo
(Now walk away now)
Do what you gotta do
Walk away, walk away boo
Do what you gotta do
Walk a— walk away boo
(Now walk away boo)
You’re gonna miss my love
