[Verse 1]
She was naive enough to think the world could end
But somebody taught her reality is persistent
Now she folds all her clothes
She’s too broken to see that romance lives in chaos
[Verse 2]
She was an astronaut, the queen, the president
But somebody taught her real life can’t match what's in your head
She held her ground, he wore her down
He was proof in himself that our innocence can drown
[Chorus]
Gnight little girl, I hope someday I’ll meet you again
I’m sorry, little girl, I gave away your magic to a man
[Verse 3]
Her comfort used to lie in the unknown
But now she hopes that science knows a way to make her feel less numb
He kept a count of her mistakes
Pinned them down and beat them till they bled and spilled their secrets
[Chorus]
Gnight little girl, I hope someday I’ll meet you again
I’m sorry, little girl, I gave away your magic to a man
[Bridge]
I hope one day what he broke can be fixed again
Gnight little girl, I know you’re scared to ever taste love again
[Outro]
I’ve never prayed before, but then one night my legs couldn't carry my feet
I dropped down to my knees and said "If you exist, you’ll give him back to me"
Asked him to hold me 'till the lights were out 'cause darkness felt so alone
Don't want to tell the little girl that real love’s not always returned
