Little Girl

Little Girl - The Hit Crew

Daddy used to tell me

If I ran too fast I'd fall and hurt myself

But the ice cream man would ring his bell

I'd get there before anyone else

I'd see a puppy in the window

And I'd run and press my face against the pane

And daddy say slow down girl

After all these years I guess nothing has changed

That little girl I knew

Ran after you

But she fell this time

And broke her heart in two

Hey that's just like a little girl I knew

Back home there stands an old house

With a picket fence beneath a big oak tree

I can almost see the backyard

And a little girl with freckles

That was me

And there were dreams of toys and storybooks

Lord it seemed I wanted them so bad

Now 20 years have come and gone

And I'm still chasing things that I can't have

That little girl I knew

Ran after you

But she fell this time

And broke her heart in two

Hey that's just like a little girl I knew

Yes I'm still that little girl

Daddy I still haven't slowed down yet
