I'll bet you like it when it's windy,
and your thoughts then match the leaves,
I'll bet you like it when snow is falling,
and you can fake some kind of inner peace,
I'll bet you don't know what to do now when the rain falls,
it was always your favorite time to sit on daddy's lap,
and try to watch the moon shine through the clouds.

Little girl in this great big world,
don't fall in love too fast,
little girl in this great big world,
don't fall in love too fast,
there's nothing wrong with waiting,
for a little while,
there's nothing wrong, and you can still smile,
there's nothing wrong,
with waiting for a little while.

I'll bet you like it when you're lonely,
and you can justify your desperate search,
I'll bet you like it when your best friends join you,
'cause it's easier when you don't have to go first,
I'll bet you think that something just like what you saw on TV,
could chase away all those bad things,
gonna have to say that I disagree,
that's probably not the case.

Little girl in this great big world,
don't fall in love too fast,
little girl in this great big world,
don't fall in love too fast,
there's nothing wrong with waiting,
for a little while,
there's nothing wrong, and you can still smile,
there's nothing wrong,
with waiting for a little while.
