"Seven Years"

This song made me cry tonight.

Spinning, laughing, dancing to
her favorite song
A little girl with nothing wrong
Is all alone


Eyes wide open
Always hoping for the sun
And she'll sing her song to anyone
that comes along

Fragile as a leaf in autumn
Just fallin' to the ground
Without a sound

Crooked little smile on her face
Tells a tale of grace
That's all her own

Spinning, laughing, dancing to her favorite song
A little girl with nothing wrong
And she's all alone


("Seven Years" by Norah Jones)

I want nothing more right now than to be that little girl.
