clarity, peace, serenity

I need some shelter of my own protection, baby
Be with myself in center
Clarity, peace, serenity

I hope you know that this has nothing to do with you
It's personal, myself and I: we got some straightening out to do

And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket
But I've gotta to get a move on with my life
It's time to be a big girl now and big girls don't cry

The path that I'm walking, I must go alone
I must take the baby steps 'til I'm full grown
Fairy tales don't always have a happy ending, do they?
And I foresee the dark ahead if I stay

I hope you know that this has nothing to do with you
It's personal, myself and I: we got some straightening out to do
And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket
But I've gotta get a move on with my life
It's time to be a big girl now and big girls don't cry

But it's time for me to go home
It's getting late and dark outside
I need to be with myself in center
Clarity, peace, serenity...
