Little Woman In Black

Little Women In Black

                                        There was a time,
                           when the sky was heavy with rain,
                           I saw a little woman in black and she ask,
                   tell me, if you could be anyone who would you be,
                                            and i said, 
                oh woman in black if i could be anyone i would be ME,
                           why though she want'd to know,
                         you could be be rich if you wanted,
                  i said,"Most people who are rich are a ,"
                     "they want nothing but money and power"
        but if i was me i would and i could do anything i set my mind to,
             now please little woman in black tell me why do you ask,
    "i have been told all my life that i should be this and that and it's tiring,"
 don't listen to what people tell you for what they want is what THEY wanted,
                             so be you and you only,
                   fallow your heart little woman in black,
