~
Walking into the night
she hoped to find her way
with the moon as her guide
her past, mere footsteps away
She held her head high
the unknown future in sight
moving towards the new day
while disappearing into the night
So small, in this big world,
a girl, with room to grow
turning footsteps into strides
within her eyes, a new glow
pieces of her she'll leave behind
never again to look back
Looking to a future she was meant for
she vanishes into the night so black

So small, in this big world,
a girl, with room to grow
turning footsteps into strides
within her eyes, a new glow
pieces of her she'll leave behind
never again to look back
Looking to a future she was meant for
she vanishes into the night so black
