Circle Game

For all my hard talk, I'm still just a daddy's girl

In this hard shell, there's tiny cracks from a big world

And there's still monsters in my closet, and they wanna come and play

There's still sounds in the dark, I wish they'd go away

I know, I know, I know, I know, I'm a big girl now

I know, I know, I know, I know, I better work it out

I've got a little girl of my own, and she looks at me

Like I'm a badass, and you know that I wanna be

And now there's monsters in her closet, and they wanna come and play

I start lookin' for my dad to come and make 'em go away

I know, I know, I know, I know, that it's my job now

I know, I know, I know, I know, I better work it out

In the circle game, no one ever stopped to say

Soon it's gonna change, it all just goes away

Count your lucky stars that you had a chance to play

In the circle game, no one ever stops to say

I had a hard day, and I need to find a hidin' place

Can you give me just a second to make it through these growin' pains?

And I know that it's just life, and I must go through things alone

But I'm feelin' kinda small, I want his hand to hold

I know, I know, I know, I know, I'm a big girl now

Yeah, I know, I know, I know, I know, we all just work it out

In the circle game, no one ever stopped to say

Soon it's gonna change, it all just goes away

What is old, can it be new again?

And what goes out, does it come back in?

Do we have to say goodbye? Can we say hello again?

Oh, where's the book that shows you how to be a big girl now?

Can I fall apart one more time before I work it out?
