(Stacy Ferguson/Tobias Gad)

La da da da da, the smell of your skin lingers round me now.
You're probably on your flight back to your hometown.
I need some shelter of my own protection, baby
To be with myself and center clarity, peace, serenity.

I hope you know, I hope you know
That this has nothing to do with you.
It's personal, myself and I, we've 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, don't cry.

The path that I'm walking, I must go alone.
I must take the baby steps till 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 nothing to do with you.
It's personal, myself and I, we've 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.

Like a little schoolmate in the schoolyard
We'll play darts and play Uno cards.
I'll be your best friend and you'll be my Valentine.
Yes, you can hold my hand if you want to
'Cause I want to hold yours too.
We'll be playmates and best friends and share our secret vows.
But it's time for me to go home, it's getting late, dark outside
I need to be with myself and center clarity, peace, serenity, hey!

I hope you know, I hope you know
That this has nothing to do with you.
It's personal, myself and I, we've 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, don't cry, la da da da da da.
