Far away from that life so young that's when you used to know
Many dreams since then you've fed up come and gone that time might show
But stress don't you let it
Don't you forget it
Trust you'll find your way to love
Hope is what your heart is made of

[Chorus:]

And don't you forget it
Don't you forget your way home
For that little girl
Hold on to your world
And don't you forget it
Don't you forget your way home
For that little girl
Hold on to your world

You're worlds apart from first when life was dark
Understanding what it means to have got
Nothing but your heavy, broken heart
Memories of what used to be
When change comes responsibility
Don't forget where you were ain't where you've been
Life's lessons then
Made you into woman

Hold on, hold on... (Yeah oh ooh)
Don't you be afraid
'Cause a heart beat away
Is all that you'd never think that sentiment will mean to you
No need to cry
You can dry your eyes
'Cause you can count on the love that through the years
Helped you face your fears and subside your tears
Everything will be OK
Don't you be afraid (No)
Don't you be afraid
No, baby...
