Whoa, little girl
You can't cry anymore
Gotta grow up real fast
Gotta take on the world
Tears must be forgotten, the sadness still there
Deep in your heart, the pain may tear
And up in the heavens, you see no star
Shining its light, knowing where you are
The sun goes on, day after day
And your journey continues, no one in your way
Be strong on the outside, though the inside may fall
Close your heart, hide your feelings from them all
Whoa, little girl
You can't cry anymore
Gotta grow up real fast
Gotta take on the world
Put on a mask, cover your face
Don't let him see you in your true place
As time passes by, perhaps he won't know
The reason you push him away from you so
Tears may fall, only to the weak
The young, the scared, and even the meek
But you must be strong, proud and unshaken
Despite the emotions that he may awaken
Whoa, little girl
You can't cry anymore
Gotta grow up real fast
Gotta take on the world
There's no comfort in living, no comfort in death
Not a thing you could do, even when he left
And when he returned, you thought you would cry
Instead you turned back, didn't look him in the eye
You must seal shut your mind, you must be strong
You cannot be with him, though you so long
No time to be weak, there's a fight taking place
You're the world's savior, a brave look on your face
Whoa, little girl
You can't cry anymore
Gotta grow up real fast
Gotta take on the world.
