I'm Just A Girl


I'm just a girl,

A girl in love,

 A girl that knows what she wants,

Is just out of reach.  

 

 I'm just a girl.

A girl that is smart.

A girl that knows what she knows,

Is just not enough.

 

 I'm just a girl,

A girl with friends.

 A girl that knows her friends,

Will be there 'til the end.

 

I'm just a girl,

A girl that is a daughter,

 A girl that knows her parents are amazing,

 and wants to fill her mother's shoes.  

 

I'm just a girl.

A girl that isn't perfect,

 A girl that knows she doesn't want to be perfect,

 and would rather be covered in dirt than be in a skirt.

 

I'm just a girl,

A girl that's stuck in life.

A girl that knows everything will turn out alright,

and wants the rest of the world to know,

She's just a girl.
