When I was a little girl
with a big heart filled with simple dreams
I didn't realize
then, I was so naive
And that not everything is as it seems
I didn't think that what I wanted
was really too much to ask
but given the chance for my heart
each boy found it too difficult of a task
How was I to know?
that most boys only like to tease and taunt
after a few broken hearts
I was unsure what to want
So I made a list,
that goes somewhat like this:
Dear God;
I know you have a whole world of people to help
so, if you get around to this,
It would mean a whole lot
I'm only asking for a boy who can love me for who I am
and not, who i'm not
Sure, I would love to be successful,
to know I could make it on my own
But I still want babies and a husband to love,
Lord, I don't wanna be alone
Even if we struggle in hard times
And can barely make it through
As long as I have my family
I'll forever be grateful to you
So I thank you in advance,
if you get a chance to listen
to a little girls dreams
although not so big,
they mean a whole lot to me
