Stripped [Live in the UK] (2002) _ 04 The voice within
1. Young girl don’t cry I’ll be right here when your world starts to fall Young girl it’s alright Your tears will dry, you’ll soon be free to fly
When you’re safe inside your room you tend to dream Of a place where nothing’s harder than it seems No one ever wants or bothers to explain Of the heartache life can bring and what it means
Chorus: When there’s no one else, look inside yourself Like your oldest friend just trust the voice within Then you’ll find the strength that will guide your way You’ll learn to begin to trust the voice within
2. Young girl don’t hide You’ll never change if you just run away Young girl just hold tight Soon you’re gonna see your brighter day
Now in a world where innocence is quickly claimed It’s so hard to stand your ground when you’re so afraid No one reaches out a hand for you to hold When you look outside look inside to your soul
Chorus
Bridge: Life is a journey It can take you anywhere you choose to go As long as you’re learning You’ll find all you’ll ever need to know (be strong) You’ll break it (hold on) You’ll make it Just don’t forsake it because No one can tell you what you can’t do No one can stop you, you know that I’m talking to you
Chorus
Young girl don’t cry I’ll be right here when your world starts to fall
