Lyrics
See Me
I close my eyes sometimes
And try to picture you
The vision is always the same
Your back is all I view
But when I was a little girl
I just wanted you to turn around and see me
Now your words are like warriors
Reckless and wild
They march through my borders
And leave me a child
I cannot combat them when I am so small
And you don't seem to notice
As you watch me fall...
That when I am a little girl
I still want you to turn around and see me
Yeah, when I am a little girl
I still want you to turn around and free me
I've been waiting, I'm not waiting
For you to turn to me
'Cause that dream it is fading into reality
Now I realize that it is not about changing you
But about shifting the picture
And changing my view
'Cause when I was a little girl
I just wanted you to turn around and see me
Yeah when I was a little girl
I just wanted you to turn around and free me
Now that little girl is mine
I take her back
