Fergie - Big Girls Don't Cry (Personal)

The smell of your skin lingers on me now, You’re probably on your flight back to your home town. I need some shelter of my own protection baby, Be with myself and center clarity, peace, serenity. [Refrain] I hope you know, I hope you know, That this has nothing to do with you. It’s personal, Myself and I, We got some straightening out to do. And I’m gonna miss you, Like a child misses their blanket, But I’ve got to get a move on with my life. It’s time to be a big girl now, And big girls don’t cry, Don’t cry, don’t cry, don’t cry. The path that I’m walking, I must go alone, I must take the baby steps, ‘til I’m full grown full grown. Fairy tales don’t always have a happy ending do they, And I foresee the dark ahead if I stay. [Refrain] I hope you know, I hope you know, That this has nothing to do with you. It’s personal, Myself and I, We got some straightening out to do. And I’m gonna miss you, Like a child misses their blanket, But I’ve got to get a move on with my life. It’s time to be a big girl now, And big girls don’t cry, Don’t cry, don’t cry, don’t cry. Like a little school mate in a school yard, We’ll play jacks and Uno cards. I’ll be your best friend, And you’ll be my, Valentine. Yes you can hold my hand if you want to, Cuz I wanna hold yours too, We’ll be playmates and lovers, And share our secret world. But it’s time for me to go home, It’s getting late and dark outside, I need to be with myself and center, Clarity, peace, serenity. [Refrain] I hope you know, I hope you know, That this has nothing to do with you. It’s personal, Myself and I, We got some straightening out to do. And I’m gonna miss you, Like a child misses their blanket, But I’ve got to get a move on with my life. It’s time to be a big girl now, And big girls don’t cry, Don’t cry, don’t cry, don’t cry.
