They say be careful what you wish for
Because some of these things might actually come true
But what sense would there be in wishing
If wishes turn into ghosts haunting you?
They say be careful who you fall for
As you never really know someone
But how is it supposed to work out
If you hesitate until the love is gone?
It’s better safe than sorry, but
Live each day as if it were your last
Learn from yesterday, but
Do not live in the past
Hey there, little girl don’t listen
Let no one tell you that you should’ve known
I’ve made all the mistakes, I’ve fallen, I’ve risen
You too, will learn it on your own
They say believe them, they’ve been through this
And just are here to help you understand
But if you’re not allowed to fall down
How will you learn to stand up again?
It’s better safe than sorry, but
Live each day as if it were your last
Learn from yesterday, but
Do not live in the past
Hey there, little girl don’t listen
Let no one tell you that you should’ve known
I’ve made all the mistakes, I’ve fallen, I’ve risen
You too, will learn it on your own
Hey there, little girl don’t listen
Let no one tell you that you should’ve known
I’ve made all the mistakes, I’ve fallen, I’ve risen
You too, will learn it on your own
