Kara Griffis - Little Girl

There's a little girl sittin' by her mama's side
Clinging to a memory, trying not to cry
She's too scared to think about
How tomorrow will play out
Without her hero

So she tries
To understand the reason why
And she flies
To places where her pain can hide

There's a teenage girl sittin' on a Sunday Pew
Wondering why the answers
Somehow don't ring true
She tries to live so perfectly
That no one can see her grief
But she knows

She knows
The slightest crack and she slips below
To places where she has no control
And so she smiles and walks away

There's an adult woman standing at her father's grave
20 years of holding back
Are running down her face
She wonders how it makes God feel
When she shakes her fist at his will
So she prays

She prays
That one day peace takes ahold
And she can have a faith so bold
She can say
It is well, with my soul
It is well....with my soul

There's a little girl sittin' by her mama's side
Clinging to a memory, trying not to cry
