when i was a little girl…

when i was a little girl i was happy
i didn’t think anything could hurt me
didn’t know about the world just waiting to destroy me

when i was a little girl i was innocent
i didn’t break rules
didn’t go looking for trouble
not like i do now

when i was a little girl i had many friends
i made friends very easily
everyone wanted to be my friend
that is no longer the case

when i was a little girl i knew what i wanted
i knew i wanted to have a family
a good job. someone to love and care for
now im not sure

when i was a little girl…
i still am a little girl
i was just forced to grow up before i should have
