Every night   I gave myself three wishes   'cos I believed   I had a secret god   we made a deal   that you would stay together   but he let me down   you told me things   beyond my understanding   the pain of love   I didn't wanna feel   but through the walls   I could hear you crying   and I can't sleep      and now, he holds me in his arms   and says our love will last   forever, I'll never be alone   but still the little girl inside   is here within my life   and I'm afraid of letting go      nursery rhymes   sung to me a bathtime   will always be   a favourite memory   of long ago   before the dream was over   and the love had gone      finally, relieved that it was ending   I told myself   I didn't really care   I made a god   for something to believe in   but no one's there      and now, he holds me in his arms   and says our love will last   forever, I'll never be alone   but still the little girl inside   is here within my life   and I'm afraid of letting go      but still the little girl inside   is here within my life   and I'm afraid of letting go
