Little girl don't you forget her face
Laughing away your tears
When she was the one who felt all the painLittle girl never forget her eyes
Keep them alive inside
I promise to try, it's not the sameKeep your head held high, ride like the wind
Never look behind, life isn't fair
That's what you said, so I try not to careLittle girl don't run away so fast
I think you forgot to kiss, kiss her goodbyeWill she see me cry when I stumble and fall
Does she hear my voice in the night when I call
Wipe away all your tears, it's gonna be all rightI fought to be so strong, I guess you knew
I was afraid you'd go away, tooLittle girl you've got to forget the past
And learn to forgive me
I promise to try, but it feels like a lieDon't let memory play games with your mind
She's a faded smile frozen in time
I'm still hanging on, but I'm doing it wrong
Can't kiss her goodbye, but I promise to try
