How can it be I tell you my soul
But I all I get in return...

I let you in
Not once but twice...

Once upon a time
On a snowy winter eve...

I see you swinging on that swing set over yonder.
I try to figure out how I feel...

Of all the things I have learned
I only know one true thing...

Trying to follow the directions
Make a left here...

Every birthday for every year
For each and every one of my friends...

A lonely 3rd grader sleeps all alone
Unaware of the clatter of the night...

I like how you hug me,
I like how you smile...

Goosebumps appear,
A smile crosses my face...

As a little girl I remember the pain
I remember the late night fights...

Walking into school
With her pretty lil head held up high...
