LYRICS:
Pretend that you’re a girl,
for the rest of your life
Pretend it for the world,
though you know it isn’t right
If life’s a fairy tale,
you can play your role and be
Be a perfect little girl
for all the world to see
but there’s a sacred place inside
and it’s a place you just can’t hide
If this whole wide world would only see
they’d know you tried to be
a perfect little girl
Pretend it’s all a dream
and one day you’ll wake inside
to be somewhere in-between
where you left, and you arrived
And you’ll know that dreams come true,
‘cause it’s happening to you
Like a redbird finds the spring,
you will find your season, too
‘cause there’s a sacred place inside
and it’s a place you just can’t hide
If this whole wide world could see
they’d know you tried to be
a perfect little girl
Blame it on the sun
Blame it on the moon
Blame it on the stars that shine
the same on me as you
‘cause there’s a sacred place inside
and it’s a place I just can’t hide
If the world could see inside of me
they’d know I tried to be a perfect little girl
Perfect little girl
Perfect little girl
