about

Solo acoustic song about a head strong teenager running away from her parents and her home.

lyrics

She turns her face into the wind
As she starts walking away
From where she used to live with them
It was impossible to stay
So she set her mind to leaving
She couldn’t wait another day
She’s not the child in her Mother’s eyes
She’s like a flower that is growing wild
If there’s something she wants she won’t be denied
She thinks she’s old enough to know
She says it’s time I’ve got to go
She leaves them crying in the rain
A case held tightly in her hand
She only grabbed what she could take
There wasn’t time to hang around
When she set her mind to leaving
She couldn’t wait another day
She’s not the child in her Mother’s eyes
She’s like a flower that is growing wild
If there’s something she wants she won’t be denied
She thinks she’s old enough to know
She says it’s time I’ve got to go
She calls up everyone she knows
To try to find a place to sleep
Get herself out of the cold
It’s no life living on the street
Since she set her mind to leaving
She wouldn’t wait another day
She’s not the child in her Mother’s eyes
She’s like a flower that is growing wild
If there’s something she wants she won’t be denied
She thinks she’s old enough to know
She says it’s time I’ve got to go
She’s not the child in her Mother’s eyes
She’s like a flower that is growing wild
If there’s something she wants she won’t be denied
She thinks she’s old enough to know
She says it’s time I’ve got to go
