When I was
A little girl
All I wanted to be
Was a princess
Not for power
Or prestige
But to wear
Pretty dresses
With tall shoes
That shine
When I was
A little girl
The whole world
Was just one block wide
And it was mine
To explore
And to discover
Ever leaf and turned rock
Could lead
To an adventure
When I was
A little girl
I couldn’t wait
To grow up
And start my life
Now that I’m grown
I miss that
Little girl
That I used
To be
