Big Girls Don't Cry by Fergie

The (1)__________ of your skin lingers on me now

You're (2)________________ on your flight back to your (3)________ town

I need some shelter of my own protection, baby

To be (4)________ myself and center

Clarity, peace, serenity




I hope you know, I hope you know

That this has (5)______________ to do with you

It's personal, (6)____________ and I

We've got (7)________ straightenin' out to do




And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket

But I've got to get a move on with my life

It's time to be a big girl now

And big girls don't cry

Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry




The (8)________ (9)________ I'm walkin', I must go alone

I must (10)________ the (11)________ steps 'til I'm full grown, full grown

Fairy tales don't (12)____________ have a happy ending, do they?

And I foresee the dark (13)__________ if I stay




I hope you know, I (14)________ you know

That (15)________ has nothing to with you

It's personal, myself and I

We've got some straightenin' out to do




And I'm gonna miss you (16)________ a child misses (17)__________ blanket

But I've got to get a move on with my life

It's time to be a big (18)________ now

And big girls don't cry




Like the little school (19)________ in the school yard

We'll play jacks and Uno cards

I'll be your best friend and you'll be mine

Valentine




Yes, you can hold my hand if you want to

'Cause I want to hold (20)__________ too

We'll be playmates and lovers

And (21)__________ our secret worlds




But it's time for me to go home

It's (22)______________ late, (23)________ outside

I need to be (24)________ myself, and center

Clarity, peace, serenity




I hope you know, I hope you know

That this has (25)______________ to do with you

It's personal, myself and I

We've got some straightenin' out to do




And I'm gonna (26)________ you (27)________ a child misses their blanket

But I've got to get a move on with my life

It's time to be a big girl now

And big girls don't cry

Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry
