Lucy Simon & Marsha Norman - The Girl I Mean to Be lyrics

'I need a place where I can go Where I can whisper what I know Where I can whisper who I like And where I go to see them I need a place where I can hide Where no one sees my life inside Where I can make my plans, and write them down So I can read them A place where I can bid my heart be still And it will mind me A place where I can go when I am lost And there I'll find me I need a place to spend the day Where no one says to go or stay Where I can take my pen and draw The girl I mean to be'
