It was the simple things that always Made her mad It was the life she lived that always Made her sad They couldn’t understand the way it felt to her Girl, you’d better get your act together Don’t close your eyes, they won’t wait forever She waited all her life just to impress them all She wanted more to life than just this little world They couldn’t break the spell for this little girl They say “when one door closes then another one opens - A little light will shine when you don’t know it” Chorus I’ve been waiting for an eternity For a life that’s not nine to five Oh save me, oh save me It was the little things That always meant the most
It was the life they bring That always let her know That she got what she got, it was her destiny Girl, you’d better get your act together Don’t close your eyes they won’t wait forever She gave it all for it But still it didn’t show She gave up everything But they will never know They told her try again Or the dream will end They said “your one step closer To the big time baby Not a sealed deal They’re still saying maybe” Chorus She gave it all for it, but still it didn’t show She gave up everything, but they will never know She gave it all for it, but still it didn’t show She gave up everything, but they will never know Chorus
