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 and dreams were rearanged And she would never be the same again 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 And 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 and warm Our hearts told us we were right And on that sweet and velvet night A child had died A woman had been born 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 And she's learning learning to live 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 And she's learning learning to live 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 And she's learning learning to live
