Little girl, I never thought you'd be a stranger But I came to recognize that crooked smile Little girl, I wish I had your spirit and your point of view That life is precious and hopeful Little girl, little world, little stars like little pearls in your hands Look at me, say my name and I'll fly Make me be someone you'll believe Can sing, can breathe, can make it through Little girl, appreciate the things you don't know That you'll need before they're gone, no goodbye Little girl, don't carry everything alone Your shoulders may be strong for now, but it gets harder Oh, look at me, say my name and I'll fly Make me be someone you'll believe Can sing, can breathe, can make it through
