This time it's up to her
She's tired of waiting
She only wants what she deserves
There's no escaping
THe fact that she's older and life's turning colder
She's finding it hard to stay warm

After the stars fall down
And there's nothing for wishing on
After the good-bye sound
And love leaves her alone
She picks herself up off the ground
She won't bow down
She's come too far to give up now

Her friends all think it's so sad
She must be lonely
She cannot help sometimes but laugh
She knows they're only
Trying to help her
But if they really knew her
They'd know she's comin' into her own

She's not sure just where she's going
She's not owing nobody
She just wants the simple life
Where they all leave her alone

And now she's comin' into her own
