Big Girls Don't Cry Lyrics - Fergie

1 Da da da da

2 The smell of your skin lingers on me now

3 You're probably on your flight back to your home town

4 I need some shelter of my own protection baby

5 To be with myself and center, clarity

6 Peace, serenity

7 I hope you know, I hope you know

8 That this has nothing to do with you

9 It's personal, myself and I

10 We've got some straightening out to do

11 And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket

12 But I've got to get a move on with my life

13 It's time to be a big girl now

14 And big girls don't cry

15 Don't cry

16 Don't cry

17 Don't cry

18 The path that I'm walking, I must go alone

19 I must take the baby steps until I'm full grown, full grown

20 Fairy tales don't always have a happy ending, do they

21 And I foresee the dark ahead if I stay

22 I hope you know, I hope you know

23 That this has nothing to do with you

24 It's personal, myself and I

25 We've got some straightening out to do

26 And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket

27 But I've got to get a move on with my life

28 It's time to be a big girl now

29 And big girls don't cry

30 Like the little schoolmate in the school yard

31 We'll play jacks and Uno cards

32 I'll be your best friend and you'll be mine

33 Valentine

34 Yes, you can hold my hand if you want to

35 'Cause I want to hold yours, too

36 We'll be playmates and lovers

37 And share our secret worlds

38 But it's time for me to go home

39 It's getting late, dark outside

40 I need to be with myself and center, clarity

41 Peace, serenity

42 I hope you know, I hope you know

43 That this has nothing to do with you

44 It's personal, myself and I

45 We've got some straightening out to do

46 And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket

47 But I've got to get a move on with my life

48 It's time to be a big girl now

49 And big girls don't cry

50 Don't cry

51 Don't cry

52 Don't cry

53 La da da da da da
