Little Girl World

The young girl says "No" to her fumbling beau
She can't help from wondering why
And how she might feel if she ever revealed
The love she so carefully hides
So she hides

She hides in her little girl world
Safe from the forces that make her give in
Safe from the boy who tries time and again
And goes home

Her mother said "Wait" from the day she turned eight
For the right man would someday appear
"And don't you give in to those fast-talking men
They'll just love you and leave you, my dear"
So she hides, yes

She hides in her little girl world
Safe from the forces that make her give in
Safe from the boy who tries time and again
And goes home

"Where's the rainbow?"
She stares out from the room
"Where's my prince on his white horse?
Lord, I hope he comes soon"

And the boy comes, the boy goes
And nobody else really knows
What she knows, she won't say
But she knows that he'll be back on the very next day
So she hides, yes

She hides in her little girl world
Safe from the forces that make her give in
Safe from the boy who tries time and again
And goes home

But he'll be back again
He'll be back again
