When you leave my world, what will the world do to you?

Just a honey-haired girl in a paper-doll world, thats what you are
You're only six, believe magic tricks, and wishing on a star
Today I can hold you, tomorrow who knows what you'll do?
When you leave my world, what will the world do to you?

Will you win the hand of a man who will make your life gay?
Or love many times, only to find you lose every game that you play
When you find there's no magic and dreams are just things that fall through
When you leave my world, what will the world do to you?

You play in the sand and you don't understand the words I say
Or the fear Mommy feels that the wrong man will steal my baby someday
Someday you will have all these troubles that don't trouble you
When you leave my world, what will the world do to you?

Will you win the hand of a man who will make your life gay?
Or love many times, only to find you lose every game that you play
When you find there's no magic and dreams are just things that fall through
When you leave my world, what will the world do to you?
