Steadfast forecast
This was always meant to be sent down by the angels
Heartbreak can't fade all the plans
That were made by a baby in a manger
Bright lights so bright
It was shinin' like a North Star answer to a prayer
How could I have known that you would come along?
When I was a little girl
I wondered who I'd give all my love to
I asked Santa who he'd recommend
It's hard to believe I was so innocent
As a little girl lookin' at the world
Didn't know that love could break me
I was lying in my tears on the ground
Couldn't see where God would take me
Here I am now, lookin' at you
Got me thinkin' that love could save me
How could I have known that you would come along?
When I was a little girl
I wondered who I'd give all my love to
I asked Santa who he'd recommend
It's hard to believe I was so innocent
When I was a little girl
I had love at the top of my wish list
All my dreams were so unlimited
It's hard to believe I was so innocent
Why do you feel so much like home to me?
Why do you feel so much like home to me?
When I was a little girl
I wondered who I'd give all my love to
I asked Santa who he'd recommend
It's hard to believe I was so innocent
When I was a little girl
I had love at the top of my wish list
All my dreams were so unlimited
It's hard to believe I was so innocent
Why do you feel so much like home to me?
