Big Girls Don't Cry

Dah, da, da-da The smell of your skin lingers on me now You're probably on your flight back to your hometown I need some shelter of my own protection, baby Be with myself and center Clarity, peace, serenity I hope you know, I hope you know That this has nothin' to do with you It's personal, myself and I We got some straightening out to do And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket But I've got to get a move on with my life It's time to be a big girl now And big girls don't cry Don't cry Don't cry, don't cry The path that I'm walking, I must go alone I must take the baby steps 'til I'm full grown, full grown Fairytales don't always have a happy ending, do they? And I foresee the dark ahead if I stay I hope you know, I hope you know That this has nothin' to do with you It's personal, myself and I We got some straightening out to do And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket But I've got to get a move on with my life It's time to be a big girl now And big girls don't cry
