Da Da Da Da The smell of your skin lingers on me now Your probably on your flight back to your home town I need some shelter of my own protection baby To be with myself instead of calamity Peace, Serenity
[CHORUS] I hope you know, I hope you know That this has nothing to do with you It's personal, Myself and I We've got some straightenin' out to do And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket But Ive got to get a move on with my life Its time to be a big girl now And big girls don't cry Don't cry Don't cry Don't cry
The path that I'm walking I must go alone I must take the baby steps until I'm full grown Fairytales don't always have a happy ending, do they And I foresee the dark ahead if I stay
[CHORUS] I hope you know, I hope you know That this has nothing to with you It's personal, Myself and I We've got some straightenin' out to do And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket But I've got to get a move on with my life Its time to be a big girl now And big girls don't cry
Like the little school mate in the school yard We'll play jacks and uno cards Ill be your best friend and you'll be mine Valentine Yes you can hold my hand if u want to Cause I want to hold yours too Well be playmates and lovers and share our secret worlds But its time for me to go home Its getting late, dark outside I need to be with myself instead of calamity Peace, Serenity
There are a few specific lines that speak to me here about being with myself instead of calamity and fairy tales not always having happy endings. I remember when I first met my A it seemed like a fairy tale, everything was so perfect, he was too good to be true. It's time to get a move on with MY life! I don't particularly like Fergie, but this song really speaks to me so thought I'd share.
How funny that you posted the lyrics of this song. Was going to do the same thing. :)
When this song first came out a couple of months ago. Wasn't liking it at all. (not a big fan of Fergie) Until one day I really sat there and listened to the lyrics, then right away when and checked the video out. Now of course LOVE IT!! So I just bought the CD a couple of days ago.The funny thing is my AH had always loved this song, just never really paid attention to words. Still don't think he knows what it's all about. lol
