This Heart of Mine

I’m so strong on the outside,
Unbreakable to you.
My strength hides all my weaknesses,
In anything I do.
I’m bold and courageous,
It’s in my blood to stay.
You see me standing straight and tall,
Stronger day by day.

But I’m just a little girl inside.
I still need someone to hold me.
This heart of mine’s a little girl.
Don’t leave me all alone.
I’m just a little girl inside.
I still need your loving arms.
This heart of mine’s a little girl.
Don’t make me stand alone.

My stubbornness precedes me,
It’s part of who I am.
The ladder to the top is long,
But I’ll do all I can.
I’ve got a streak of bravery,
Honesty and pride.
If dared I’d face the world alone,
My power I can’t hide.

But I’m just a little girl inside.
I still need someone to hold me.
This heart of mine’s a little girl.
Don’t leave me all alone.
I’m just a little girl inside.
I still need your loving arms.
This heart of mine’s a little girl.
Don’t make me stand alone.

You may be fooled into thinking,
That I don’t even need you.
I’m so strong… I’m so brave…
But please understand one thing…

I’m just a little girl inside.
I still need someone to hold me.
This heart of mine’s a little girl.
Don’t leave me all alone.
I’m just a little girl inside.
I still need your loving arms.
This heart of mine’s a little girl.
Don’t make me stand alone.
I don’t want to stand alone.
