Big Girls Don't Cry by Fergie

The smell of your skin lingers on me now

You're probably on your flight (1)________ to your home town

I need some shelter of my own protection, baby

To be with myself and center

Clarity, peace, serenity




I hope you know, I hope you know

That this has nothing to do (2)________ you

It's personal, myself and I

We've got some straightenin' out to do




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

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

It's time to be a big girl now

And big girls don't cry

Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry




The path that I'm walkin', I (3)________ go alone

I must take the baby (4)__________ 'til I'm full grown, full grown

Fairy tales don't (5)____________ have a happy ending, do they?

And I foresee the dark ahead if I stay




I hope you know, I hope you know

It's personal, myself and I

We've got some straightenin' out to do




And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses (6)__________ blanket

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

It's time to be a big girl now

And big girls don't cry

We'll play jacks and Uno cards

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

Valentine

And share our secret worlds




But it's time for me to go home

It's getting late, dark outside

I need to be with myself, and center

Clarity, peace, serenity




I hope you know, I hope you know

That this has nothing to do with you

It's personal, myself and I

We've got some straightenin' out to do




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

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

It's (8)________ to be a big (9)________ now
