It just took a little while for me to get my head together
Growing up`s the hardest thing I`ve ever done
Here I am like a stranger in the house I grew up in
And learned right from wrong in if I did
Where the sun never shined enough on daddies growing older
And mothers never died in but she did
And I remember feeling guilty cause I couldn`t wait to leave here
Though I loved `em every way that I knew how
So I packed up all my yesterdays and headed for tomorrow
And it`s almost tomorrow now
And daddy`s little girl is home but where`s the little girl gone
She bundled up her dirty jeans and teenie bopper magazine
In search of what her life was all about
With a little rag doll named Charlie Brown
And an ole suitcase full of hand me downs
And a loneliness she knew so much about
Now the dreams that I trusted and all the playthings have rusted
But here I am a woman somehow
And all those growing pains of yesterdays are gonna get me through tomorrow
Cause it`s almost tomorrow now
And daddy`s little girl is home but where`s the little girl gone
She bundled up her dirty jeans...
Oh but I can still remember when I used to gaze out this window
Wondering who I was and what I would become
And it just took a little while for me to get my head together
Growing up`s the hardest thing I`ve ever done
Oh but I can still remember...
