She's always trying to be
This independent girl
That is never in need
Twenty years in this town
She still relies on me
To find her way around

Because she's just a little girl
Time isn't holding her down
Well she's just a little girl
She never needed a crown
She just wants somebody around
Who won't laugh when she laughs too loud
She just wants somebody to see
She's just a little girl

When I think too much
Voices in my head
Are silenced by her touch
She hates being alone
Baby talks to me
When we're on the phone

Because she's just a little girl
Time isn't holding her down
Well she's just a little girl
She never needed a crown
She just wants somebody around
Who won't laugh when she laughs too loud
She just wants somebody to see
She's just a little girl

In a world that moves too fast
She's afraid she'll never last
But if she holds the faith of a child
She'll be alright
She'll be alright

Because she's just a little girl
Time isn't holding her down
Well she's just a little girl
She never needed a crown
She just wants somebody around
Who won't laugh when she laughs too loud
She just wants somebody to see
She's just a little girl
She's just a little girl
She's just a little girl
