Stars litter the sky
|
The moon is shining high
|
|
This soft, September night
|
Two lovers creep out of sight
|
|
A maiden dressed in white
|
With copper hair
|
|
Restless for adventure
|
She don't care
|
|
That the wolf is in disguise
|
She's been ensnared
|
|
He got the devil in his eyes
|
& stylish flair
|
|
He shoves her to the ground
|
Her soul begins to drown
|
|
A sky full of eyes where the stars should be
|
A sky full of eyes watching silently
|
|
You're a woman now
|
You've become a woman now
|
|
The weight of the cradle has broken the bough
|
You've become a woman now
|
|
Mama woke me up at dawn
|
She helped me get my best dress on
|
|
She braided flowers in my hair
|
So sweet was the summer air
|
|
I'm to meet my groom down by the sea
|
A perfect stranger to correct me
|
|
The judges arrive in pairs of 3
|
Don't be scared, just relax & breathe
|
|
Good girls hold real still
|
Surrender your free will
|
|
They cracked the crown
|
To pluck the pearl
|
|
Here, on the jagged edge
|
Of the world
|
|
You're a woman now
|
You've become a woman now
|
|
The weight of the cradle has broken the bough
|
You've become a woman now
|
|
Standing on the welfare line
|
My daughter clinging to my side
|
|
I see the faith in her eyes
|
I whisper, baby we'll be just fine
|
|
I'll get a good job
|
& we'll find a new place
|
|
I'll work real hard
|
& we'll make our escape
|
|
I promise you I will get us through
|
Together we will bloom
|
|
You're a woman now
|
You've become a woman now
|
|
The weight of the cradle has broken the bough
|
You've become a woman now
|
|
You're a woman now
|
You're a woman now
|
You're a woman now
|
