Big Girls Don't Cry by Fergie

The smell of your skin lingers on me now

You're (1)________________ on your flight back to your home town

I (2)________ some (3)______________ of my own protection, baby

To be with myself and center

Clarity, peace, serenity




I (4)________ you know, I hope you know

That this has nothing to do (5)________ you

It's personal, myself and I

We've got some straightenin' out to do




And I'm (6)__________ miss you like a child misses their blanket

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

It's (7)________ to be a big (8)________ now

And big (9)__________ don't cry

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




The path that I'm walkin', I must go alone

I (10)________ take the baby steps 'til I'm full grown, full grown

Fairy (11)__________ don't always have a happy ending, do they?

And I (12)______________ the dark ahead if I stay




I hope you know, I (13)________ you know

That this has nothing to (14)________ you

It's personal, (15)____________ and I

We've got some straightenin' out to do




And I'm gonna miss you (16)________ a (17)__________ misses (18)__________ 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




Like the little school mate in the (19)____________ yard

We'll (20)________ jacks and Uno cards

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

Valentine




Yes, you can (21)________ my hand if you want to

'Cause I want to hold yours too

We'll be playmates and lovers

And share our secret worlds




But it's time for me to go home

It's getting late, dark outside

I need to be with myself, and center

Clarity, peace, serenity




I hope you know, I hope you know

That (22)________ has nothing to do with you

It's personal, myself and I

We've got some straightenin' out to do




And I'm (23)__________ miss you (24)________ a child misses (25)__________ blanket

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

It's time to be a big (26)________ now

And big girls don't cry

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