I'm so afraid of what you'll say

It's a big girl world now

Full of big girl things

And everyday I wish I was small

I've been counting on nothing

But he keeps giving me his word

And I am tired of hearing myself speak

Do you ever get weary?

Do you ever get weak?

How do you dream

When you can't fall asleep?

I've been wondering what you're thinking

And if you like my dress tonight?

Would you still say you love me

Under this ordinary moonlight?

I'm so afraid of what you'll say.

I'd like to know if you'd be open

To starting over from scratch

I'd like to know if you'd be open

To giving me a second chance

I used to think I was special

And only I have proved me wrong

I thought I could change

The world with a song

But I have ended up in India

With no lamp to guide me home.

The strangest place I think

I have ever been

And all this time

I thought that we were friends

My stubborn will is learning to bend.

I'd like to know if you'd be open

To starting over from scratch

I'd like to know if you'd be open

To giving me a second chance

I'd like to know if you'd be open

To starting over from scratch

I'd like to know if you'd be open

To giving me a second chance

It's a big girl world now

Full of big girl things
