it's a big girl world now
full of big girl things
and every day I wish I was small
I've been counting on nothing
but he keeps giving me his word
and I am tired of hearing myself speak
do you get weary? do you ever get weak?
how do you dream when you can't fall asleep?

I've been wondering what you're thinking
and if you like my dress tonight
would you still say you love me
under this ordinary moonlight
I'm so afraid of what you'll say

I'd like to know if you'd be open to starting over from scratch
I'd like to know if you'd be open to giving me a second chance

I used to think I was special
and only I have proved me wrong
I thought I could change the world with a song
but I have ended up in India all alone
with no map to guide me home
the strangest place I think I've ever been
and all this time, I thought that we were friends
my stubborn will is learning to bend

I'd like to know if you'd be open to starting over from scratch
I'd like to know if you'd be open to giving me a second chance

I'd like to know if you'd be open to starting over from scratch
I'd like to know if you'd be open to giving me a second chance

it's a big girl world now
full of big girl things
and every day I wish I was small

    I agree with spinningfree. This song the first time I heard it was in Grey's Anatomy and OMG I couldn't stop humming the song, so I had to look in a GA website to look for the song's name, well it was crazy. But the song is amazing and I'll always love it.
