lyrics

I don’t want to grow up she said to me / I don’t want to grow up she said when she was barely three / I just want to be your little girl forever // And I don’t like to paint my nails or wear lipstick / I don’t like to brush my hair and make up makes me sick / Oh I just want to be your little girl forever // And she went dancing through the room / And singing through the halls / And she was mine // Will you make it to the school with your lunch and mine / I’m afraid that you’ll forget and you won’t make it on time / And I will have to buy that gross hot lunch again // And I don’t like it when you yell at me that way / I don’t like it when you call me all those silly names / And tell me I’m a crazy girl using half my brain // And she went kicking through the room / And screaming through the halls / And she was mine // And then she danced right through the room / And sang right through the halls / And she was mine // Wake up Mom I had another scary dream tonight / Can I climb up in your bed instead of mine / Just like I used to do when I was barely three // So in the crook of my arm I can feel her red hair / Underneath my nose and I can smell the fire burning there / And know that she won’t be my little girl forever // But for now she presses into me / And breathes a sigh of deep relief / And we both know we’re chasing time / As she kicks me in the ribs and tosses over me / And she is mine // Well she goes dancing through the room / And singing through the halls / And she is mine, oh she’s always mine / She will dance into your heart and sing into you life / But she’ll be mine // I don’t want to grow up she said to me
