It's something else to see the way you're growing

From a sweet little baby to a grown up girl

And I pray though darlin' I've no way to knowing

That you'll discover a beautiful world



As you skip down the street

And hold your books so tightly

Tell me what are you learning in your ABC

Are you dreaming off all the many things you might be

You know that we're just waiting to see



Schoolgirl

You're such an inspiration

Schoolgirl

And you're as fresh as the breeze

You've got the whole world

Just waiting for you

You're really something, something to see



It's easy to worry in a world of trouble

When there's nothing but bad news

Trying to bring you down

But life doesn't have to be unuphill struggle

There's still some wonderful things to be found



There is sadness and confusion in our hearts

And the world prepares to fight

As it tears itself apart - it isn't fair
