This time it's up to her, she's tired of waiting
She only wants what she deserves, there's no escaping
The fact that she's older and life's turning colder
She's finding it hard to stay warm

After the stars fall down and there's nothing for wishing on
After the goodbye sound and love leaves her alone
She picks herself up off the ground, she won't bow down
She's come too far to give up now

Her friends all think it's so sad, she must be lonely
She cannot help sometimes but laugh
She knows they're only trying to help her but if they really knew her
They'd know she's comin' into her own

After the stars fall down and there's nothing for wishing on
After the goodbye sound and love leaves her alone
She picks herself up off the ground, she won't bow down
She's come too far to give up now

She's not sure just where she's going
She's not owing nobody
She just wants the simple life
Where they all leave her alone

Leave her alone, she'll come home
Leave her alone, she'll come home
And now she's comin' into her own

After the stars fall down and there's nothing for wishing on
After the goodbye sound and love leaves her alone
She picks herself up off the ground, she won't bow down
She's come too far to give up now
