The days come and go, so does my shadow with night and day, I've grown, grown big to want a husband and children, without the sun's warm embrace, I've followed life, living with principle and my words, to their abode; I'm a woman now, my mother's hands smaller than mine, I'm a woman, the mirror paints her beautiful, The days are long gone, those days I miss and my head can't twist back enough to recall them, This, this is sadness.

Aloof.
The days come and go, so does my shadow with night and day, I've grown, grown big to want a husband and children, without the sun's warm embrace, I've followed life, living with principle and my words, to their abode; I'm a woman now, my mother's hands smaller than mine, I'm a woman, the mirror paints her beautiful, The days are long gone, those days I miss and my head can't twist back enough to recall them, This, this is sadness.
