She runs to the wishin' well With her pocket full of dreams One after the other Throws them all into the deep The fever's in her veins Every moment she's awake Secretly she listens Waiting for the wind to change Desperate to break away, to live by She believes but she's afraid to try Cause no one's ready for the girl Desperate to find a world Where she can hold her own But she's afraid to try Cause no one's ready for the girl No one's ready for the girl Held back by reputation Just waiting for the time to pass Brought down by expectation But she's not gonna die Cause no one's ready for the girl Life's not a wonderland But it's all she's ever known Secretly she wishes There would be another door Desperate to break away, to live on She believes but she's afraid to try Cause no one's ready for the girl It's hard to make a stand Hanging from a string But she's afraid to try Cause no one's ready for the girl No one's ready for the girl Held back by reputation Just waiting for the time to pass Brought down by expectation But she's not gonna fight Cause no one's ready for the girl She might be too much No one's ready for the girl Oh, but never enough No one really knows, oh No one really knows She's living someone else's life Cause no one's ready for the girl Held back by reputation Just waiting for the time to pass Brought down by expectation Cause no one's ready for the girl Held back by reputation Just waiting for the time to pass Brought down by expectation But she's afraid to fight Cause no one's ready for the girl *
