won`t you take my hand?
you just pass me by
I am quiet
won`t you ask me why?
you keep passing by

I have grown
and pushed you away
and you push right back
I go silent
I make my own way
and you don`t come back

I found love
kept reaching for hands
they all passed me by
I lashed out
then begged them to stay
they kept passing by

I`m alone
pushed the world away
and it pushed me back
I am static
stuck in my own rut
and no one comes back

but you call
and I`m small again
I remember it all
I am scared
that you`ll ask me why
why I passed you by

little girls
only reach for hands
and they notice when
it`s not noticed
so they go alone
it`s hard to come back

I am small
will you take my hand
or keep passing by?
I am quiet
can I ask you why
you always passed by?

I am small
won`t you take my hand?
you just pass me by
I am quiet
won`t you ask me why?
you keep passing by

I have grown
and pushed you away
and you push right back
I go silent
I make my own way
and you don`t come back

I found love
kept reaching for hands
they all passed me by
I lashed out
then begged them to stay
they kept passing by

I`m alone
pushed the world away
and it pushed me back
I am static
stuck in my own rut
and no one comes back

but you call
and I`m small again
I remember it all
I am scared
that you`ll ask me why
why I passed you by

little girls
only reach for hands
and they notice when
it`s not noticed
so they go alone
it`s hard to come back

I am small
will you take my hand
or keep passing by?
I am quiet
can I ask you why
you always passed by?
