This girl walked in dreams, playing in a world of her own
This girl was a child existing in a playground of stone
Then one night her world was changed
Her life & dreams were rearranged
& she would never be the same again
CHORUS:
This girl is a woman now; she's learned how to give
This girl is a woman now; she's found out what it's all about
& she's learning, learning to live
This girl tasted love as tender as the gentle dawn
She cried a single tear, a teardrop that was sweet & warm
Our hearts told us we were right
& on that sweet & velvet night
The child had died; a woman had been born
