Was it cold 
Standing in his shadow
No hand to hold 
Praying for tomorrow 
Things get better
Than they were the day before 
Did your arms get tired 
From picking yourself 
Up off the floor

Did you ever have dreams 
To run away
To start a new life
In another place 
With a different name 
This great big world 
Has so many roads to choose
Until you turn around
And realize it's only you

Shes a woman 
In a man's world 
A mother and a warrior 
But she's still
Daddy's little girl 
She's a woman
Trying to make her way
Looking through the window 
And waiting for the day 

Did you ever think of me
Did you ever see me passing by 
Could you see the stars 
When you looked 
Through the window at night 

I hope there comes a day
When your free to make a choice
I hope you're doing fine 
But I'd love to hear your voice 

Shes a woman 
In a man's world 
A mother and a warrior 
But she's still
Daddy's little girl 
She's a woman
Trying to make her way
Looking through the window 
And waiting for the day
