Heidi

Lyrics

You were caught in a changing world And you started going through some changes of your own You had to say goodbye to the little girl And say hello to the someone you'd never known Well, those teen-age blues, well, they had to come And you never felt so all alone before You couldn't talk to your dad or your mom So you did all your hurting behind your bedroom door And the world keeps turning Turning much too fast And you were churning And how long would this last, Heidi? You did everything the way it was done By everyone who was anyone in your school Deep inside sometimes you knew you were wrong But it seemed so much better than looking like some kind of fool And Heidi you got yourself over your head With a sweet talking boy who made you feel like a pretty girl You knew that he loved you 'cause that's what he said But it was hit and run and he left you in some kind of whirl And the world keeps turning And the boys were much too fast But you were learning How to catch their forward pass And in the name of love they will use you Leave you empty in the end Yeah, this big old world can confuse you Do you need some kind, some kind of friend, Heidi? Heidi, God watches you stare in the mirror While you wait for the princess to finally appear in view But He's looking deeper than a young man could care While He waits to awaken the princess inside of you And Heidi, God watches you there in the night While you lie awake and dream of the perfect love He saved all your tears and He keeps them in site He knows all your longings and all that you're dreaming of And the world keeps turning As He holds it in His hand And He keeps yearning That you find His perfect plan, Heidi
