Lyrics

What do you want me to say?
That she would understand
It’s more than anyone young or grown
Should ever withstand

You told her once but it’ll never be enough
To say everything is gonna be alright


It’s time to let go of control
Of the way she views the world
It’s likely her dreams shattered there
When his life took its toll

You told her once but it’ll never be enough
To say everything is gonna be alright

But you know and I know it won’t
At least not for a little while
She is only a child
She is growing up wild.

It’s hard to avoid all the pain
In a way it is her right
Just give her some time to breathe
That she might see the light…
You told her once but it’ll never be enough
To say everything is gonna be alright

But you know and I know it wont
At least not for a little while
She is only a child
She is growing up

Burning bridges by the waterfalls
Burning bridges by the waterfalls
She’s only a child
She’s only a child
