NIC'S GARDEN
SOMETHING INSIDE MORE PRECIOUS THAN WORDS EVER HEARD
in your wildest dreams when you're not afraid you can feel the love that you would have made if you didn't learn how to be well-behaved so what happens to all the love you saved? little girl it's time to find yourself your first steps into the world of personality what a world your first decisions come from deep inside yourself and make reality but before you get the chance to understand you're forced to trade true love for this world's repressed version of romance and somewhere inside you go mad forgetting all the dreams you once had just so the compromise doesn't seem so bad and you can pretend you're really glad and you don't look so sad it's fate... it's god... it's happenstance... but if you get the chance... just don't forget how to sing... and remember how to dance... ( ... wondrously flowing smiling dancing musical interlude ... ) in your wildest dreams when you're not afraid to be real and true to the plan you made before you were taught how to compromise and when right and wrong were not changed by lies little girl it's time to leave yourself your last steps in your world in your fantasy what a world where true feeling is numb and so feelings become just a fantasy and if by some quirk of chance you understand and can somehow fool them all as you take the full measure of their lance let them think you hide or they'll be mad for they've forgotten all the best dreams they had just so the compromise doesn't seem to bad and they can pretend they're really glad and they can pretend they don't look sad it's late... it's hard... truth's an unpopular stance but if you get the chance... let someone hear you sing... and remember how to share your dance... ( ... wondrously flowing smiling dancing musical interlude ... ) in your wildest dreams when you're not afraid to be real and true to the plan you made before you were taught how to compromise and when everything was clear, so there... right before your eyes... ( ... a "touch" of the interlude ... ) little girl you're such a surprise because you're still... right there... right here right before my eyes Little Girl (For Nicole) Ric Candor ©1994, 2000 BACK NEXT
