Letra da Música Conversations With Z de Shellee Coley

I don't want to grow up she said to me
I don't want to grow up she said when she was barely three
I just want to be your little girl forever

And I don't like to paint my nails or wear lipstick
I don't like to brush my hair and make up make me sick
Oh I just want to be your little girl forever

She went dancing through the room
And singing through the halls
She was mine

Will you make it to the school with your lunch and mine
I'm afraid that you'll forget and you won't make it on time
I will have to buy that gross hot lunch again

And I don't like it when you yell at me that way
I don't like it when you call me all those silly names
Tell me I'm a crazy girl using half my brain

She went kicking through the room
And screaming through the halls
And she was mine
And then she danced right through the room
And sang right through the halls
She was mine

Wake up mom I had another scary dream tonight
Can I climb up in your bed instead of mine
Just like I used to do when I was barely three

So in the crook of my arm I can feel her red hair
Underneath my nose and I can smell the fire burning there
And know that she won't be my little girl forever

But for now she presses into me
And breathes a sigh of deep relief
And we both know we're chasing time
As she kicks me in the ribs and tosses over me
And she is mine

Well she goes dancing through the room
And singing through the halls
And she is mine, oh she's always mine
She will dance into your heart and sing into you life
But she'll be mine

I don't want to grow up she said to me.
