I need a place where I can go

Where I can whisper what I know

Where I can whisper who I like

And where I go to see them



I need a place where I can hide

Where no one sees my life inside

Where I can make my plans, and write them down

So I can read them



A place where I can bid my heart be still

And it will mind me

A place where I can go when I am lost

And there I'll find me



I need a place to spend the day

Where no one says to go or stay

Where I can take my pen and draw

The girl I mean to be
