[00:16.79] |
She said goodbye to her parents' house |
[00:20.39] |
Kissed her daddy while her mama cried |
[00:24.38] |
Boarded a train like a carousel |
[00:27.52] |
She hummed the song that the ice cream man played when he drove by |
[00:32.54] |
Oh my my my |
[00:34.80] |
She loves Ohio in the summertime |
[00:38.29] |
Though white picket fences offer no defenses |
[00:42.07] |
And the children laugh in the streets |
[00:45.49] |
Oh, but that's not all she needs |
[00:49.33] |
"There's a great big world out there and I wanna see it |
[00:56.98] |
There's a great big world out there and there's a place for me in it |
[01:04.40] |
Though I'll miss my mother and the friends I know |
[01:07.83] |
The light burns out if you wait too long |
[01:11.48] |
There's a great big world I see and it's waiting out there for me" |
[01:27.02] |
She hits the city with half a tank |
[01:29.78] |
In a car she bought from a ring she pawned |
[01:34.44] |
She spent the summer by happenstance |
[01:37.96] |
There was a boy who could read her thoughts with his deep brown eyes |
[01:42.67] |
Oh my my my |
[01:45.32] |
But when he'd drink he was a different kind |
[01:48.78] |
Though white picket fences shook her defenses |
[01:52.62] |
And children danced in her dreams |
[01:55.71] |
No that's not all she needs |
[01:59.49] |
"There's a great big world out there and I wanna see it |
[02:06.80] |
There's a great big world out there and there's a place for me in it |
[02:14.43] |
Though I'll miss my mother and the friends I know |
[02:17.95] |
The light burns out if you wait too long |
[02:21.67] |
There's a great big world I see and it's waiting out there for me" |
[02:29.68] |
I've never felt so alone |
[02:31.70] |
I've never felt so alive |
[02:33.50] |
I've never been so sure |
[02:35.26] |
I could learn to fly |
[02:37.20] |
I've never felt so alone |
[02:38.96] |
I've never felt so alive |
[02:40.87] |
I've never been so sure |
[02:42.66] |
I could learn to fly |
[02:44.48] |
I've never felt so alone |
[02:46.38] |
I've never felt so alive |
[02:48.28] |
I've never been so sure |
[02:49.99] |
I could learn to fly |
[02:51.95] |
I've never felt so alone |
[02:53.76] |
I've never felt so alive |
[02:55.60] |
I've never been so sure |
[02:57.62] |
I could learn to fly |
[03:00.97] |
Inside her wallet's a photograph |
[03:04.05] |
Of the place she's from and the ones she loves |
[03:09.79] |
"There's a great big world out there and I wanna see it |
[03:16.96] |
There's a great big world out there and there's a place for me in it |
[03:24.52] |
Though I'll miss my mother and the friends I know |
[03:28.17] |
The light burns out if you wait too long |
[03:31.78] |
There's a great big world I see and it's waiting out there for me" |
[03:40.01] |
I've never felt so alone |
[03:41.95] |
I've never felt so alive |
[03:43.73] |
I've never been so sure |
[03:45.49] |
I could learn to fly |
[03:47.37] |
I've never felt so alone |
[03:49.22] |
I've never felt so alive |
[03:51.04] |
I've never been so sure |
[03:52.80] |
I could learn to fly |
[03:54.69] |
I've never felt so alone |
[03:56.60] |
I've never felt so alive |
[03:58.37] |
I've never been so sure |
[04:00.23] |
I could learn to fly |
[04:02.17] |
I've never felt so alone |
[04:03.86] |
I've never felt so alive |
[04:05.78] |
I've never been so sure |
[04:07.79] |
I could learn, I could learn to fly |
