[00:02.34]All you can count on is yourself little girl, little lady
[00:11.82]I can see the sparkle in your eyes
[00:15.11]I can't wait to see you fly little lady
[00:18.64]Life is but a dream right now (Little lady)
[00:24.56]And then the years go by
[00:27.33]10 piercing 15 and before you know it you're 25
[00:31.46]Your heart's been broken and you're terrified (Little Lady)
[00:37.58]Gently down the stream (Mercedes)
[00:40.15]Merrily, merrily, merrily (Little lady)
[00:43.17]Life is but a dream (Mercedes, Little lady)
[00:49.97]Just a little girl (Mercedes) grown up in a cold, cold world (Little lady)
[00:55.49]Where nothing is what it seems (Mercedes, Little lady)
[01:02.52]Lies, deception, and false truths are the substitutes of
[01:05.94]what used to be your lullabies
[01:08.01]Can't distinguish the laughter from the cries
[01:10.64]Bags under your eyes, so you use make-up to cover up what you cannot hide
[01:15.03]And then you have daughters, and then they have sons, Who have daughters,
[01:18.36]and those are the ones,
[01:19.87]Who have the opportunity to break the curses that make the mothers
[01:23.00]by purses with letters on them to show that they're not worth less
[01:26.89]We did it
[01:27.84]We drop the ball like a million times ladies, I admit it
[01:30.74]The blames on man, no need to split the difference
[01:33.06]But God is raising up men who really get it
[01:35.44]We got the same haircuts, same clothes, but trust me baby girl something's different
[01:40.22]It's accepting that we are not in control
[01:42.88]Giving our lives to the one who is
[01:44.18]He wipes our noses and subdue our fears
[01:46.96]Honestly that's all it really is
[01:48.46]In our youth we had hopes too,
[01:50.50]but some heroes never ever appear
[01:53.76]Gently down the stream (Mercedes)
[01:56.14]Merrily, merrily, merrily (Little lady)
[01:59.00]Life is but a dream (Mercedes, Little lady)
[02:06.08]Just a little girl (Mercedes) grown up in a cold, cold world (Little lady)
[02:11.38]Where nothing is what it seems
[02:17.65](Mercedes-Sit down and count the snowflakes falling on you
[02:34.13]All you can count on is yourself little girl, little lady)
[02:43.91]Gently down the stream (Mercedes)
[02:46.39]Merrily, merrily, merrily (Little lady)
[02:49.53]Life is but a dream (Mercedes, Little lady)
[02:56.48]Just a little girl (Mercedes) grown up in a cold, cold world (Little lady)
[03:01.89]Where nothing is what it seems (Mercedes, Little lady)
[03:09.24]Little lady (Mercedes) Mercedes (Little lady)
[03:14.83]Life is but a dream (Mercedes)
