As a little girl
I'd played with dolls and toys
I would dress em up
Then I would make some noise
Pretendin one day I'd be star
On the tv screen
Cover of magazines
20 Years later
When my light seems to shine a bit dimmer
Lookin in the mirror I could be [Am]a bit thinner
Things changed but I smile a bit bigger
Dig deep as i ɾemember
Where did the light go?
It was [Am7]shining so bright
Like the cosmos
I could see it at night
Oh do you [A7know
Ttell me do you [A7know
Where did it go oh oh ho
When I need it so
It illuminated everything around me
Do you [A7ɾemember its inside you [A7and [Bm]me
Where did it go oh oh ho
The Illuminated me
No more careless songs
That's what the people'd say
Put on [C7]your big girl pants
Its time for [Dm7]work now
Spare the silly dance
Don't crack a smile
Its not funny
Go out and [Bm]make some money m money honey
20 Years later
The same sad song [Am]gets depressing
And your numb to [C7]the cancer that stɾess brings
Look around you [A7there's infinite blessings
I'm constantly checking
Where did the light go?
It was [Am7]shining so bright
Like the cosmos
I could see it at night
Oh do you [A7know
Ttell me do you [A7know
Where did it go oh oh ho
When I needed it so
It illuminated everything, around me
Hidden so deep its inside you [A7and [Bm]me
Where did it go oh oh ho
Its inside me, gotta dig deep
The Illuminated me
Dust my [A]shoulders off
Walk to [C7]the light
Sometimes I see it shining
Other times its is hard to [C7]find
Drowning in an ocean of negativity
Where's my [A]life boat
Ggotta stay afloat
Where did it go oh oh ohh
Do you [A7know
Tell me do you [A7know
Where did it go oh oh
The illuminated me
