Little Girl
It breaks my heart to see you this way
You touch me
And it hurts to see you cry

Little Girl
You're beautiful inside
Don't you realize
It hurts to see the sadness in your eyes

Little Girl
You were meant to laugh and smile
hold my hand and cry if you want to
and let go of the pain for a little while

When you're near
I feel you in my heart
and seeing you this way
I fall apart

Little girl
Come near and rest your head on my shoulder
I understand the pain, though I'm older
You were meant to laugh and smile

Our soft hearts were not made for this world
so hard and lonely and rough
You shouldn't have to make yourself so tough
because nobody loved you enough

Little girl
I mean the little girl inside of you
let me comfort you
and remind you that you deserve to be loved

Little girl inside
It breaks my heart to see you this way
you touch me
and it hurts to see you cry
